PENDLETON, OR – The final round of the 2026 Wildhorse Ladies Golf Classic concluded with Megha Ganne defeating Cholcheva Wongras in a two-hole playoff at Wildhorse Golf Course, the championship golf course of Wildhorse Resort & Casino. Both golfers finished the third round at 19 under par and were still tied after matching birdies on the first playoff hole. On the second playoff hole, Ganne putted for par while Wongras was facing bogey.
This is Ganne’s first Epson Tour tournament win and she leaves Pendleton with $37,500 in winner’s earnings. Her Saturday round of 63 tied the tournament’s low round and put her in the top five on the leaderboard before Sunday’s action teed off. “She played some fabulous rounds of golf,” said Gary E. George, CEO of Wildhorse Resort & Casino. “She came from two strokes back, took the lead and held on to win. It was an impressive performance on a challenging course set up by the Epson Tour.”
Thailand’s Cholcheva Wongras started the day with a share of the lead and made a critical par on the final hole of regulation play to force a playoff. Wongras shot a 68 on the day, featuring one eagle, and had only one bogey through the entire weekend. Both Ganne and Wongras are in their first year competing on the Epson Tour. Ganne’s win qualifies her to compete in the Tour Championship in October, where LPGA status will be in play for both golfers through the Tour’s Race for the Card season-long points competition.
The final leaderboard was rounded out by Americans Samantha Wagner and Laura Wearn and South Africa’s Kajal Mistry, all at 17 under par. Wearn had the low round of the day at 64, featuring two eagles.
“I’d like to thank all of the Epson Tour professionals and staff, our volunteers, host families, and the employees of Wildhorse Resort & Casino for their hard work and support in making this a successful event,” said George. The Wildhorse Ladies Golf Classic will return in 2027.
