LIBERTY CORNER, N.J. (Aug. 12, 2024) - The USGA has finalized the eight players who will represent the USA in the 2024 Curtis Cup Match that will be held Aug. 30-Sept. 1 at Sunningdale Golf Club in England. The five players added join the previous three who were automatic selections last month. 

The five added players are: 

Anna Davis, 18, of Spring Valley, Calif. 

Melanie Green, 22, of Medina, N.Y. 

Rachel Kuehn, 23, of Asheville, N.C. 

Megan Schofill, 23, of Monticello, Fla. 

Asterisk Talley, 15, of Chowchilla, Calif. 

They join Zoe Campos, 21, of Valencia, Calif.; Jasmine Koo, 18, of Cerritos, Calif.; and Catherine Park, 20, of Irvine, Calif., who were named to the team as automatic selections earlier this summer due to their place on the Women’s World Amateur Golf Ranking®. Six of the eight players are currently inside the top 20 in the WAGR ®. 

The USA Team will return just one player from the winning 2022 team, with Kuehn making her third consecutive appearance in the biennial competition. The recent Wake Forest graduate also competed in the 2021 Match in Wales, where she secured the clinching point for the Americans. Kuehn is the first player since Virginia Derby Grimes (1998, 2000, 2006) to be named to three Curtis Cup teams. 

"I am incredibly honored and excited to represent the USA again in a Curtis Cup Match,” said Kuehn. “It’s not something I ever take for granted, and it’s a dream come true every time to be part of such a storied tradition. Playing alongside these amazing athletes and competing on behalf of our country is a tremendous privilege, and I can’t wait to get started.” 

The alternates for the USA Team are, in order of ranking: Kiara Romero, 18, of San Jose, Calif., and Farah O’Keefe, 19, of Austin, Texas.  

Meghan Stasi, of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., will captain the 2024 USA Team. A four-time U.S. Women’s Mid-Amateur champion, Stasi was a member of the victorious 2008 USA Curtis Cup Team held on the Old Course at St. Andrews in Scotland. The Curtis Cup Match is contested by two teams of eight female amateur players, one from the United States of America and one from Great Britain and Ireland, which is composed of England, the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The USGA’s International Team Selection working group selects the USA Team, while The R&A selects the GB&I Team. 

Notable past USA Curtis Cup Team members include U.S. Women’s Open champions JoAnne Gunderson Carner, Paula Creamer, Juli Inkster, Cristie Kerr, Patty Sheehan, Hollis Stacy and Michelle Wie West, as well as past and present LPGA stars such as Jennifer Kupcho, Stacy Lewis, Lexi Thompson, Beth Daniel, Jessica Korda, Nancy Lopez and Rose Zhang.
