September 2022 Ohio Golf Journal

Ohio Golf News Rocky River’s Jillian Hollis recorded her first win of the 2022 EPSON Tour season and third career title at the Circling Raven Championship in Idaho last month. Hollis was a three-time All American at Georgia and has played professionally since 2018. This season, she has made 9 of 10 EPSON Tour cuts. The $30,000 first-place check gives her a total of $64,500 and moved her into the top 10 on the EPSON Tour money list. The top 10 players at the end of the season receive LPGA Tour membership for the following year. Miami Valley Women performed well at the U.S. Women’s Amateur held at Chambers Bay in August. Five ladies qualified at Walnut Grove, but Vania Simont did not make the trip to Tacoma and first alternate Savannah Grewel took her place. Four of those women, Annabelle Pancake, Mia Hammond, Savannah Grewel and Aneka Seumanutafa finished inside the top 64 and qualified for the match play portion of the tournament. All four advanced through the first round. In the round of 32 Hammond and Grewel were forced to play each other with Hammond getting the win. Both Pancake and Seumanutafa won their matches to advance. That would be the end of the line for all three as Seumanutafa lost to the eventual winner Saki Baba and both Pancake and Hammond were defeated. Congrats all the qualifiers out of the Walnut Grove for their great showing at the U.S. Women’s Amateur.
