2025 Women?s Amateur Championships Day 3 Recap

Scores

McMURRAY, Pa. – After coming close on multiple occasions, Susquehanna Valley Country Club’s Hannah Rabb will finally have her name on a Pennsylvania Golf Association (PAGA) championship trophy. Rabb won the 89^th PAGA Women’s Amateur Championship after a mistake-free final round at Valley Brook Country Club on Wednesday, shooting a four-under 68 (the lowest round of the week) to earn medalist honors. She birdied holes No. 2, 5, 8, and 11 to help wrap up the title and finished at six-under-par for the tournament.

“I just played really solid,” said Rabb.”I hit a lot of fairways and didn’t miss many irons. It helped to hit it on the green and have good looks at birdies. I made a couple early on, maintained the rest of the round, and was lucky enough to be bogey-free.”

Previously, Rabb had been the runner-up of the PAGA Junior Girls’ Championship for three consecutive years, from 2022 to 2024, and was the leader for a time at that event in 2025, finishing tied for third place.

“I was keeping the online score but I didn’t look where I was at until the very end,” said Rabb. “I knew if I looked I’d get in my head, so I didn’t and just tried to be steady on the back nine, where I had struggled the past two days. It feels really great to win, especially since I’ve been golfing since I was 5 years old and playing in these tournaments for years. It’s nice to put up a really good finish against an amazing field with so many great girls out here.”

Rabb’s closest competition was Michelle Cox (Lehigh Country Club), who had topped the leaderboard after the first two rounds and entered the day tied with Rabb at two-under-par. Cox totaled six birdies in her Wednesday round (on holes 2, 7, 9, 12, 13, and 17) but four bogeys proved to be the difference, as she finished two strokes back of Rabb.

Third place belonged to 2023 PAGA Women’s Amateur champion Rylie Heflin, who finished at one-over for the week. A trio of competitors ended up tied for fourth place at two-over-par: Megan Meng (Jericho National Golf Club), defending champion Angelina Tolentino (The 1912 Club), and 2019/2022 medalist Jackie Rogowicz (Merion Golf Club).

With the victory, Rabb also secures a spot in the upcoming 125^th Annual U.S. Women’s Amateur Golf Championship, scheduled for Aug. 4-10 at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort in Bandon, Ore.

The Pennsylvania Golf Association would like to thank the staff and membership of Valley Brook Country Club for the hospitality shown during this week’s Championship. Additional thanks go to DICK’S Sporting Goods for sponsorship of the event as the title sponsor of the PAGA.
