Players to Watch:
Patty Moore of Charlotte, N.C. has won 18 CGA Championships; seven of those wins are Carolinas Senior Women’s championships. Moore is the top-ranked senior woman in the Carolinas. Earlier this year, she claimed her fourth North Carolina Senior Women’s Championship title. Moore is one of two players that have won both the N.C. Senior Women’s and the Carolinas Senior Women’s Championships in the same year.
Two-time defending champion Pat Brogden of Garner, N.C., is the only other player to accomplish that feat. Brogden has won ten overall CGA championships. In the past seven years, she has won the Carolinas Senior Women’s championship five times. Brogden is ranked second among the Carolinas senior women.

This year she has had two top-five finishes and qualified for both the U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur and U.S. Women's Senior Amateur Championships. Beaupied is searching for her first CGA championship title. Last year she had her second top-ten finish at this championship.
After finishing in the top-five the last two years of the Carolinas Senior Women’s Championship, Angela Stewart is looking to win her second CGA championship. This year she earned a top-five finish at the N.C. Senior Women’s Championship. Stewart is ranked fourth in the Carolinas senior women’s rankings.
