Megha Ganne makes her LPGA debut as a pro this week at The Standard Portland Classic with an exemption from winning the Inkster Award that recognizes the highest-ranked college golfer in her final year of eligibility.
Ganne was a four-time All-American at Stanford, which won two NCAA titles when she was there, and she won the U.S. Women’s Amateur last summer at Bandon Dunes.
The award is named after Juli Inkster, who spent all four years at San Jose State, became the first player to win three straight U.S. Women’s Amateur and went on to win seven LPGA majors and the career Grand Slam in her Hall of Fame career.
She is the seventh senior to win the award, following Carolina Lopez-Chacarra at Wake Forest last year. Chacarra, an LPGA rookie, recently won on the Ladies European Tour.
