Leah John had the biggest move of the week, jumping 77 spots to No. 22 in the Race for the Card standings after capturing the first professional victory of her career at the Four Winds Invitational. John now has three top ten finishes in her young career and is looking for another great week at the Wildhorse Ladies Golf Classic. The Epson Tour sophomore is only 47.643 points away from getting within the top fifteen of the Race for the Card standings. The 25-year-old has made six straight cuts on tour, giving her a good chance to potentially climb the ranks and clinch her LPGA Tour card for the 2026 season.

Melanie Green reclaimed her position at the top of the Race for the Card leaderboard following an impressive second-place finish in South Bend, Ind. The rookie claimed her eighth professional top-10 finish at the Four Winds Invitational to officially clinch her LPGA Tour card for the 2026 season. Her lead is razor-thin, with just 26.154 points separating her and three-time 2025 winner Gina Kim as the race for 2025 Epson Tour Player of the Year is still up for grabs.

Another standout performer heading into the Wildhorse Ladies Golf Classic is sophomore Jennifer Chang, climbing 55 spots to No. 39 in the Race for the Card after capturing a runner-up finish at the Four Winds Invitational. It marks the second Epson Tour top ten of her career and her first since the 2024 Florida’s Natural Charity Classic. After a roller-coaster season, Chang appears to have rediscovered the game that helped her earn three wins in two seasons at the University of Southern California during her college career. Chang is entering this week with confidence as she heads to Portland to compete in The Standard Portland Classic on the LPGA Tour.
