Could this be Stone’s breakthrough? The 2023 U.S. Women’s Amateur runner-up will make her third Augusta National Women’s Amateur appearance. She has advanced to the final round in each of the past two years, twice shooting 72 to finish runner-up to Anna Davis in 2022 and eighth in 2023.

Last August at Bel-Air Country Club in Los Angeles, she finished runner-up in the U.S. Women’s Amateur to Megan Schofill. Before advancing to the final, she won matches against Amari Avery, Rachel Kuehn, Yana Wilson and Rachel Heck.
