With Mary Beth Ellis, Liz Blatchford and Liz Lyles the top three seeded are already safe for a Kona slot. A few others might still make it in August with a good result, but each of them already has five results:

  • Sarah Piampiano (4.410 points, probably okay with a Top 5)
  • Jessie Donavan (2.945), Jackie Hering (2.500) – they probably need a win for a slot
