TOURNAMENT HISTORY
Florida will make its second debut at the Glass City Invitational, an event the Gators won in 2019. Marina Escobar helped secure a four-shot win for UF behind her T19 outing.
STRONG DEBUT
Freshman Sophie Stevens had a collegiate debut to remember. The Highland, Michigan native finished a team-best T15. In he first round she posted a bogey-free 66 (-5) and later added a 69 (-2) in round three to end 5-under overall.
ONE LAST TIME
The trio of Marina Escobar, Annabell Fuller and Jackie Lucena all returned for their fifth and final collegiate season heading into the 2023-24 campaign. This will be their third season together as Lucena joined the program in 2021 as a transfer from UC Davis.
A SEASON AGO
Florida defended its home tournament for the eighth straight year under Glaser and for the 26th time overall at the 51st Gators Invitational in the 2022-23 season. The Gators also qualified for the NCAA Regionals for the 11th straight season after making match play in back-to-back seasons and fourth time in program history since the format was added in 2018.
Glaser worked with Annabell Fuller, who earned her third straight All-SEC selection and first Golfweek All-American honor in addition to a third All-American Scholar accolade.
Outside of the season competition, Maisie Filler was invited to the Augusta National Women's Amateur (ANWA) for the first time in her career. It marked the fifth player under Glaser to play in the prestigious event as she has had a selection since the inception of the tournament in 2019.
NEW FACES IN THE ORANGE & BLUE
Four new Gators joined the program this year in Georgia Southern transfer Sarunchana Rattanasin and freshmen Ines Archer, Paula Francisco and Sophie Stevens.
THE TURN
Florida travels to the Tar Heel Invitational from Oct. 9-10 before wrapping up the season finale at The Ally (Oct. 23-25).
