The LPGA has released the new 2021 Priority List.

Due to COVID, it is pretty much the same as the 2020 Priority List before any reshuffles. Winners last year got in as did the Top-5 2020 Symetra Tour (although way down at the bottom). Otherwise most players are pretty close to the same spot they were in at the beginning of last year.
Karrie Webb and Yani Tseng get a bonus year to their Career Top 20 exemption they took last year and it will only count as one year (you can take Career Top 20 twice). Candie Kung gets a bonus year for her Career Top 40 exemption as well. Players were not allowed to take these exemptions for 2021 if they didn't take them in 2020.
Top 5 Symetra Tour is Category 19 and it has four members #367-370 on the list. While that isn't going to get them into many events, it does give them membership and the ability to earn official money if and when they do get into events.
Canadians:
4 Brooke Henderson (Top 80 Money List 2019)
58 Alena Sharp (Top 80 Money List 2019)
133 Jaclyn Lee (Top 45 Q-Series, Medical)
359 Anne-Catherine Tanguay (126-150 Money List 2019)
There was no Q-School last year, but there will be one this year
