FLORIDA STATE GOLF ASSOCIATION Dear Florida Golfers, Thank you for supporting the Florida State Golf Association. As a member of the FSGA, you are helping us preserve and protect this great game. We must first recognize all of the FSGA Committee Members who make our service to the game possible. There are more than 500 Committee Members across Florida who assist with tournaments and course rating. The FSGA has become one of the premier state golf associations in the country because of these fine men and women. In 2019, the FSGA will conduct more than 600 days of competition including: 47 state championships, 48 USGA qualifying events and over 190 One-Day tournaments. The Florida Junior Tour (FJT) continues to provide competitive and affordable tournaments for the state’s top junior golfers. In its 17th season, the FJT consists of 40 events for boys and girls ages 9-18. If you have the chance, come out to see these unbelievable junior golfers! We hope you will join the FSGA as a Foundation Member and support the Future of Golf Foundation. The Foundation benefits the state’s juniors with college scholarships and assistance with travel expenses to state and national tournaments. We appreciate your support and dedication to the game of golf. Sincerely,
Steve Carter FSGA President

2018 PLAYERS OF THE YEAR AMATEUR PLAYER OF THE YEAR - MEGHAN STASI For the third-straight year, Stasi was crowned the Women’s Amateur Player of the Year. She continued her great amateur success this year with three USGA Championship appearances and seven top-10 finishes. The Oakland Park native began her season with a tied for eighth finish at the Harder Hall Invitational before winning the Ione Jones/Doherty Championship. She took fourth place at the Women’s International Four-Ball at The Wanderers Club, with her partner Catalina Lara. Shortly after Stasi partnered with Tama Caldabaugh to finish tied for fifth at the Women’s Four-Ball Championship at LPGA International. Stasi entered the 2018 Women’s Mid-Amateur Championship at Sugar Mill Country Club as the backto-back defending champion. Despite a first round eight-over 80, she rallied to shoot a one-over 73 to secure a fourth-place finish. She and her partner Dawn Woodard advanced to the Round of 16 at this year’s U.S. Women’s Amateur Four-Ball, falling to Katherine Gravel-Coursol and Paige Nelson, in 21 holes, at El Caballero Country Club. After qualifying for the event at Hobe Sound Golf Club, Stasi was one of just seven mid-amateurs in the field at the U.S. Women’s Amateur. She found success again at the 2018 U.S. Women’s Mid-Amateur Championship in St. Louis, Missouri. Stasi advanced to match play for the 13th straight year and was a quarterfinalist. She lost to Defending Champion, Kelsey Chugg, 3 and 2.

PLAYERS OF THE YEAR GIRLS’ JUNIOR PLAYER OF THE YEAR – CHLOE SCHIAVONE Schiavone was honored with the Girls’ Junior Player of the Year award following her 2018 season that saw four wins and seven top-15 finishes on the Florida Junior Tour. Her first FSGA Championship victory of the season came at the Women’s Four-Ball Championship. Schiavone and her partner, Ariel Yu, finished nine strokes ahead of runner-ups Kayla Holden and Lauren Davenport. The Jacksonville native secured her first individual FSGA Championship at Bent Pine Golf Club, where she won the Girls’ Junior Amateur Championship. Schiavone carded the only under-par round of the championship with a three-under 213. She won the 2018 Junior Amateur Match Play in July at The Forest Country Club, defeating runner-up Skylee Shin, 3 and 2. Schiavone and Izzy M. Pellot teamed up to advance to the quarterfinals of the U.S. Women’s Amateur Four-Ball Championship earlier this year. In FJT events, Schiavone captured one win and two other top-10 finishes. She earned the win at River Strand Golf & Country Club, posting a one-over 145.
SENIOR AMATEUR PLAYER OF THE YEAR – MARY JANE HIESTAND A two-time winner in 2018, Hiestand was named the Senior Amateur Player of the Year for the second year in a row and the seventh time in the last nine years. The Naples native captured her fourth Women’s Senior Amateur Championship in April, posting a four-over 148 at Country Club of Ocala. She finished five strokes ahead of runner-up Lisa Schlesinger. Hiestand garnered another top-five finish at the Women’s Mid-Amateur, finishing third. In August, Hiestand won her first Florida Senior Women’s Open Championship. The championship was decided by a sudden-death play-off between Hiestand, Kim Keyer-Scott and Susan Bond. Hiestand and Keyer-Scott both pared the 14th hole to advance in the play-off. Hiestand would come out on top with a birdie on the fourth play-off hole. Hiestand also competed in the inaugural U.S. Senior Women’s Open Championship at the Chicago Golf Club in Wheaton, Illinois. She was one of 29 amateurs to compete in the championship. Hiestand competed in two other USGA Championships: U.S. Women’s Mid-Amateur and the U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur. Her best finish came at the U.S. Senior Women’s Am, where she advanced to the Round of 16.
