Conway native Kristy McPherson shot a 2-over 74 Saturday and sits tied for 80th after four rounds of the LPGA and Symetra Tour Qualifying School’s final stage.

McPherson was at 4-over 292 in the five-round event.

The top 20 will earn full status on the 2017 LPGA Tour, and players inside the top 45 will earn conditional status.

McPherson, who played last season on the Symetra Tour, was exempt to the final round based on her lifetime LPGA earnings of more than $2.17 million.
