The Masters Tournament hasn’t even started, yet Augusta National seems as busy as ever due to the Augusta National Women’s Amateur. And it’s all thanks to the amazing number of talents on the course. And who’s the new name joining the list? Well, it’s Eila Galitsky. And what an amazing round she had at the Augusta National, shooting 6-under 66 to finish the tournament 8 under, securing the clubhouse lead. Even more importantly, her final round tied the lowest score in ANWA history at Augusta National, matching Bailey Shoemaker’s 2024 round that led to her runner-up finish. However, looking at this, you must wonder: who is Eila Galitsky?
Well, we will go into the details about the same here! Born in Chiang Mai, Elia Galitsky holds dual citizenship in Thailand and Canada, thanks to her Toronto-based father. Interestingly, the Galitsky family left Chiang Mai in 2019 for a six-week trip to the United States. However, it was a purposeful journey. The family made the move to support Galitsky in her debut on the American Junior Golf Association Tour at the David Toms Foundation Junior All-Star event.
And she is doing well when she achieved one win and three top-five finishes on the Thai LPGA Tour. Galitsky finished T-8 in last year’s Augusta National Women’s Amateur, where she closed with birdies on holes 13, 15, and 16. In February, she secured her first collegiate win at the Moon Golf Invitational.
