The initial field for one of the amateur game’s most prestigious tournaments, the Augusta National Women’s Amateur, has been set.

Given that prize, as well as its place in the calendar less than two weeks before The Masters at the same venue, it’s little wonder that the event never fails to attract plenty of attention from around the world – as well as the best players in the women’s amateur game.

That’s no exception in 2026, with 48 of the top 50 players in the world amateur rankings all accepting invitations to play. That includes the player at the top of the rankings, Kiara Romero, who placed T7 a year ago.

Paula Martin Sampedro is second in the rankings, and she is also in the field, along with her Spanish compatriot Andrea Revuelta, Megha Ganne, Meja Ortengren, Eila Galitsky, Maria Jose Marin, Farah O’Keefe, Catherine Park and Asterisk Talley, who complete a clean sweep of the world’s top 10.

In Talley’s case, she will be desperate to go one better than 2025, when she finished on 11 under, one behind winner Carla Bernat Escuder. However, Escuder won’t be there to defend her title, as she turned professional last August.

There are other former winners in the field, including 2022 champion Anna Davis, who was aged 16 when she held off Ingrid Lindblad and Latanna Stone to take the title.

Japanese player Tsubasa Kajitani, who won the event in 2021, defeating Emilia Migliaccio in a playoff, will also appear.

Other notable names confirmed in the field include members of the triumphant 2024 Great Britain & Ireland Curtis Cup team, Beth Coulter and Patience Rhodes.

Davis, Park and Talley all played for the US at the match, and they will be joined in the field by another teammate, Jasmine Koo.

Amanda Sambach, who has placed in the top 20 in each of her last three starts at the tournament, will also make her sixth appearance.

Here is the confirmed field for the Augusta National Women’s Amateur.
