The tenth annual Murphy USA El Dorado Shootout will return to Mystic Creek Golf Club September 15-21, 2025. Come to El Dorado, Arkansas to see the top rising stars in women’s golf compete for $300,000 in prize money at the only Epson Tour stop in the four-state region of Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana and Oklahoma.


Epson Tour sophomore Erica Shepherd’s final round was nothing like she expected it. Sitting three shots behind the lead heading into Championship Sunday’s final round, the Indiana native felt some nerves while on the quest to claim the first victory of her young professional career.
“I actually am proud of myself. I do not know if I have ever said that before, but like I have said, it has been such a journey, and succeeding in pro golf has definitely not been easy for me,” said Shepherd.
The 24-year-old carded four birdies on the round to climb to the top of the leaderboard. The Duke University alumna found birdies on holes three and six, rounding the turn with a 2-under 34 on her front nine. Shepherd continued her birdie streak, sinking a putt on the par-5 14, followed by a clutch 7-foot birdie on 18 green in front of a crowd to secure her first professional win. Shepherd is the first left-handed player to win an Epson Tour event.
