Universities with their first-ever selection include Bernat (Kansas State), who was also the first golfer from Tulane to be selected in 2023, Bunch (New Mexico State), Mulcahy (Findlay), and Klutznick (Emory). Green is the first USF women’s golfer selected for the Palmer Cup and joins Albin Bergstrom (2022) as the only Bulls to be selected.
Wake Forest has had at least one women's golfer selected every year since the Palmer Cup expanded to include International and women's competitors in 2018.
