Pancake Leads a Stacked Field at the 2022 Texas Women’s Open

Steven Clements • June 2, 2022

ARGYLE, TX – Annabelle Pancake (a) fired an opening round 6-under-par, 33-33–66 to surge into the early lead at the 2022 Texas Women’s Open. Wildhorse Golf Club at Robson Ranch (South/North) is the host site for this year's Championship.


Pancake just completed her sophomore year at Clemson University and is making her second career start in the Texas Women’s Open. She played in the morning wave today which saw excellent scoring conditions. “Honestly my putting was the best part of my game today, I hit a lot of good shots but I was able to drain a lot of putts,” said Pancake. She comes into the week with plenty of experience as a two-time Indiana Women’s Amateur Champion.


Unfortunately, afternoon storms caused a three-hour and twenty-one minute delay. Play was suspended due to darkness at 8:30 p.m. and will resume at 7:30 a.m. tomorrow morning. Currently, 51 players are at even par or better. 


Defending Champion Kenzie Wright carded a 3-under-par, 69, putting her tied for 6th. She will look to catch Pancake over the next two rounds. “Going off the first hole this year was definitely a bit more intimidating and a little scarier. Especially when they say past champion while teeing,” said Wright.


This year's Championship features an overall purse of $50,000. Of the total purse $47,000 will be awarded to the professionals that make the cut and $3,000 to the amateurs in the form of gift certificates.


The 2022 Texas Women’s Open is presented by CG Infinity and TPX Communications and is supported by the Women’s All Pro Tour.

The PGA of America announced today that Ronny Glanton, PGA head professional at Sherrill Park Golf Course, will be inducted into the PGA of America Hall of Fame. Glanton, a native of Mineral Wells, Texas, began his career in 1981 as an Assistant Professional at Sherrill Park Golf Course in Richardson, Texas. Upon achieving PGA of America membership in 1984, he took over as Head Professional and has been at the Richardson facility ever since. He is the only member to serve twice as President of the NTPGA (2006-07, ‘18-’19). Glanton played a key role in the PGA of America’s relocation to Frisco, Texas. He is a passionate advocate for junior golf, developing impactful programs like the Sherrill Park Learning Center and the Hawks junior golf team, which have introduced thousands of new golfers to the game; his leadership in the creation of “The Ronny” Golf Park on the PGA Frisco campus further expands community outreach and player development. Among his previous awards are PGA of America Golf Professional of the Year (2020), NTPGA Golf Professional of the Year (1999, ‘07, ‘19), NTPGA Bill Strausbaugh Award (2003-05, ‘08, ‘14) and NTPGA Merchandiser of the Year (1994), plus induction into the Texas Golf Hall of Fame in 2022. Glanton actively supports his colleagues, raising over $100,000 through pro-ams for PGA Members facing medical hardships. He’s also been a four-time contestant in the PGA Professional Championship, five-time contestant in the Senior PGA Professional National Championship and seven-time participant in the PGA TOUR Byron Nelson (now the CJ Cup Byron Nelson). Glanton is a three-time NTPGA Major Champion, six-time Senior Division Major Champion and a 17-time member of the NTPGA Joe Black Cup Team, which he has also captained three times. The PGA of America Hall of Fame originated in 1940 at the suggestion of famed sportswriter Grantland Rice. It is the highest honor the PGA of America can bestow upon its membership or ambassadors of the game.

Congratulations to Ronny on this momentous occasion!
