Rising English stars Billie-Jo Smith and Megan Dennis are among seven players celebrating a promotion to next season's Ladies European Tour after topping the points table at the end of the 2024 LET Access Series.
The pair finished second and fourth respectively in the Order of Merit following the conclusion of the season at the weekend, which resulted in Smith's loss to English women's qualifier Ellie Gower at the Calatayud Ladies Open in Spain.
The pair will be joined by Kajsa Arwefjall, Tina Mazarino, Anna Magnusson, Natacha Host Husted and Ariane Klotz on the top European women's tour in 2025 after enjoying successful seasons in the Access Series.
Arwefjall advanced to the LET Access Series qualifiers after winning two tournaments and finishing seven out of five during the season, while Billie-Jo Smith became the runner-up after a season of three consecutive play-offs.
The Lincolnshire star, who battled through injury to secure her place in the women's top flight, has been delighted with her performance this season, despite several near misses, and is delighted to have won the Players' Player of the Year. The prize.
“This means everything – I have no other words than those,” he said. “I didn't expect the player of the players award. A few people said they voted for me but it's important to have support even if I don't get it right this year.
“It's unbelievable that last season I was injured. To go from such a difficult place to this is amazing and I hope the success can continue. “
Woburn's Megan Dennis will join Smith on the Ladies European Tour next season following a year that saw her win the inaugural Get Golfing Women's Golf Championship and five other top-10s.
“I am very happy to stand with my LET card. I was under pressure coming into this week so it's good to finally get to this point,” he said. “Two years ago I almost gave up golf when I was having a hard time with it mentally. I couldn't see the light at the end of the tunnel. But I met a few new people and changed coaches, and it was the best thing I ever did. I've never looked back – so I'm very grateful to my team.”
