Overview

  • Stark carded rounds of 70 and 69 to tie for second place after two rounds at the U.S. Women’s Open.
  • Her aggressive strategy and willingness to attempt ‘one-percent’ shots have earned praise from friend and former teammate Linn Grant.
  • In 2024, she posted two runner-up finishes on the LPGA Tour, including a two-stroke gap behind World No. 1 Nelly Korda at the Chevron Championship.
  • She credits her PING setup—from a G430 Max driver to Blueprint irons—for the accuracy and distance that underpin her game.
  • Supported by caddie Hadley Trenfield and coach Hans Larsson, she has parlayed teamwork into six LET titles and an LPGA breakthrough at the 2022 ISPS Handa World Invitational.
