With T-5 finish at Marathon Classic, Kupcho earns spot in AIG Women’s British Open

Jennifer Kupcho came up short in a weekend bid to win the Marathon Classic, but she got a nice consolation prize.

With her T-5 finish Sunday, Kupcho earned one of five qualifying spots for players who weren’t already qualified for the AIG Women’s British Open in three weeks.

“It's great, just coming off two missed cuts,” Kupcho said. “Obviously, I wanted to come out and play strong.”

Kupcho, the 2018 NCAA champ, winner of the inaugural Augusta National Women’s Amateur and former world amateur No. 1, earned $52,798 with her best finish since turning pro this summer.
