“Auston Kim and Louise Yu have won two regionals in their career at Vanderbilt and in my opinion there’s no more pressure in a golf tournament than playing in a regional and they’ve got two wins.”

Junior Jayna Choi's final-round of 2-under came with five birdies on the back nine to give her a career-best 54-hole 212.
