Ladies European Tour winners Rebecca Artis and Stacey Keating head a large contingent of Australians teeing it up in this week's final stage of the US LPGA Tour qualifying school.
The pair are joined by Breanna Elliott, Frances Bondad, Julia Boland, Emma de Groot, Stephanie Na, Corie Hou, Kristie Smith and Inhong Lim.
They are in a field of 153 women vying for 20 full tour cards and 25 partial cards in the final stage of qualifying over 90 holes at LPGA International in Daytona Beach, Florida starting on Wednesday.
Artis, 25, broke through for her maiden LET win at the Helsingborg Open in September.
"I am trying to treat it as I would any other tournament," said Artis, from Coonabarabran, NSW.
"It definitely helps take the pressure off knowing that I have my full exemption in Europe after my win this year."
Notables in the field include American Cheyenne Woods, South African Lee-Anne Pace, Canadian Lorie Kane, former LPGA Tour winners Seon Hwa Lee and Birdie Kim.
