Meet the 39-year-old mini-tour player who qualified for her first U.S. Women’s Open in 15 years

“There’s an inner belief that you just have to deep down know that hard work will pay off.”

Jean Reynolds turns 40 in September and recently qualified for her third U.S. Women’s Open. The last time Reynolds qualified for a Women’s Open was 2009 at Saucon Valley, back when she was the top player on what’s now the Epson Tour. The 5-foot-2 Reynolds garnered plenty of attention back then when she played her way into contention.

“I really didn’t know if this would happen again,” said Reynolds, who currently holds no tour status of any kind.
