Tournament Information
123rd Women’s Western Amateur Championship
White Eagle Golf Club | Naperville, IL
July 17-22, 2022
The Women's Western Amateur is open to amateur women who have an up-to-date 18-hole handicap index that does not exceed 5.4 under the World Handicap System. The WWGA Committee limits the field to a maximum of 120 contestants.
The championship begins with 36 holes of stroke-play qualifying, after which the field is cut to the low 32 players for match play. In the event of a tie for the 32nd position, a sudden-elimination playoff will determine the final match play qualifiers. Five rounds of 18-hole matches will decide the Women's Western Amateur champion.
The Women's Western Amateur champion receives fully exempt status into all future Women’s Western Amateur Championships as long as she retains amateur status.
The Women’s Western Amateur Championship is recognized by World Amateur Golf Ranking (WAGR).
