Asterisk Talley Wins the US Women's Amateur and Gets Her 2nd USGA Title
The 17-year-old from California earned her second USGA title and will play next year’s U.S. Women’s Open, officials said.
- On Sunday, 17-year-old Asterisk Talley won the 126th United States Women's Amateur Championship in Ooltewah, Tenn., defeating Anna Iwanaga 8-and-6 after five days of weather delays.
- California native Talley secured her second USGA title, adding to her 2024 Amateur Four-Ball Championship win with teammate Sarah Lim, and now holds an 11-2 career record in match play.
- Dominating the 30-hole final, Talley made nine birdies and an eagle; "I think it pretty much completes my amateur career," she told the GOLF Channel immediately after winning.
- The victory earns Talley exemption into four of the five LPGA Majors next year and qualifies her for the U.S. Women's Open at Inverness Club in Ohio next year.
- About one week away from starting her senior year of high school, Chowchilla resident Talley will join Stanford next year, cementing her status among the world's most accomplished amateur golfers.
