Cherish Andrews and David Coleman showed their strategic brilliance, dominating the live tournaments in the year 2024 and winning the GPI Player of the Year races. Andrews and Coleman will now be awarded the prestigious Player of the Year award at the 2024 Global Poker Awards ceremony in Las Vegas.

Talking about Cherish Andrews, she has collected her second Female Player of the Year award in three years. Meanwhile, Texas native Hang Feng had a remarkable season, earning the GPI Mid-Major Player of the Year honour. Andrews also came close to winning the 2024 Mid-Major POY Award, but narrowly missed out on the title, finishing runner-up to Hang Feng in the Mid-Major category . 

Cherish Andrews Wins Second GPI Female POY Award

Back in 2022, Cherish Andrews won the GPI Female Player of the Year for her power-packed performance and did it again in 2024 by defeating ace player Kristen Foxen in a dramatic showdown. Foxen, a highly talented player, who took home the GPI Female POY award in 2022, 2019, 2018, and 2017, narrowly missed out on her 5th POY title this year. 

Foxen, after an amazing start in early 2024, and an impressive finish in the WSOP 2024 Main Event, was a fan favorite for winning the 2024 Female POY, but eventually ended up as the runner-up to Andrews.

Andrews finished the year 2024 with 3,115.65 points ahead of Foxen (2,196.13 points). She had an incredible year as she earned a staggering $829,863 in 2024 on the back of 36 cashes, including an impressive three live victories and 10 top 10 finishes.

Andrews solidified her position in the POY race by winning the World Series of Poker Circuit North Carolina for $108,971 and later she scored cash finishes in the 2024 WPT World Championship in Las Vegas.  Other players who finished among the top five on the 2024 GPI Female Player of the Year leaderboard include Victoria Livschitz (2,649.56), Rania Nasreddine (2,541.39), and Maria Konnikova (2,266.71) all having a good year on the poker felts.
