Early life, college and amateur career

Inglis started playing golf at the age of 13 and won three straight individual state titles as an Oregon junior golfer. [2] In 2011, she advanced to match play in the U.S. Girls' Junior, and reached the quarter-finals of the Oregon Amateur. [3]

Inglis attended the University of Oregon form 2012 to 2016 and played with the Oregon Ducks women's golf team. [4] In her penultimate year, she won the individual Pac-12 Conference Championship with a 7-under 206 (67-72-67), the second-lowest score in program history at the time. [2]

Professional career

Inglis turned professional in 2016 and finished tied 44th at the LPGA Final Qualifying Tournament to earn status for the 2017 LPGA Tour. She recorded her first top-10 finish at the 2018 Hugel-JTBC LA Open, before sitting out the 2019 LPGA Tour season due to a back injury, which required surgery. [1]

Inglis returned from injury to finish tied 22nd at the 2020 Women's British Open at Royal Troon. She claimed a two-shot win over Andrea Lee in the 2021 Rose Ladies Series event at Scotscraig Golf Club, also securing a spot at the Women's Scottish Open. [5]

Inglis was in contention at the 2024 Women's PGA Championship, where she ultimately finished tied for 9th. [6]
