It's time to put our 2022 Lone Star Cup team together!

What is the Lone Star Cup (LSC)?

The LSC is a match play tournament among the LPGA Amateur Golf Association chapters from Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma and New Mexico.

The 2022 LSC tournament will be held

September 15–17

(Sept 15th is a team-required practice day)

at Forest Creek Golf Club in Austin

The tournament is a two-day TEAM event modeled after the Solheim Cup. Day 1 of the tournament is team match play (four-ball or alternate shot) while Day 2 is singles match play. This tournament travels between chapters and this year we are being hosted by the Austin Chapter. The Dallas LSC Team will have 12 players and 2 alternates.

Margaret is serving as a non-playing Captain.

_______

How the Qualifiers work:

Members can compete in 3 qualifying events to determine the 12 players and 2 alternates for the September event in Austin. Players of ALL HANDICAPS are needed for the team – actual matches will be played against players with similar handicaps, so this is a great tournament for everyone!

_______

How the team will be formed:

Players will compete in individual Matches against another player with a similar handicap. In each of the 3 qualifying matches that you play, you'll earn 1 point for a win, 1/2 point for a tie, or 0 points for a loss. The top 14 point earners will make up the 2022 team, with the 2 lowest point earners serving as alternates.
