The Augusta National Women’s Amateur will start in only three days! And excitement for one of the biggest women’s amateur events is undoubtedly off the charts. The 72-player field has been decided, with former winners Anna Davis (2022), and Tsubasa Kajitani (2021) returning to enjoy Magnolia Lane.

The event is scheduled to start on April 3rd and end on April 6th. Though a champion will be crowned, the ANWA does not offer any prize purse for the winner. However, there is a prestigious trophy the player can take home, which will notably enhance their accolade shelf.

How was the Augusta National Women’s Amateur trophy made? 

The trophy for the Augusta National Women’s Amateur was introduced in the inaugural season in March. The inaugural ceremony for the silverware was done by the LPGA Tour Hall of Famer, Nancy Lopez, with that year’s participants, Maria Fassi and Sierra Brooks. The cup was made in collaboration with the jewelry masters at Tiffany & Co.

The upper part of the trophy, the bowl, and the neck are made up of a mixture of spun sterling silver with 24k yellow gold vermeil. From Tea Olive from East Asia to Holly at the 18th hole. The silver cup has beautiful designs of all the flowers in a ring that each hole at Augusta National represents.
