Marty leads the WU charge
Sophomore
Ines Marty capped off a stellar week by shooting an even-par final round featuring four birdies. Marty's performance in Georgia was highlighted by an explosive four-under-par second round (six birdies, one eagle) and an opening two-over-par card (three birdies).
With a total of 13 birdies and an eagle, Marty recorded the second-most birdies in the entire tournament field, earning a well-deserved eighth place finish on the individual leaderboard.

Gabrielle Duhalde finished in 54th place after carding a five-over-par final round with two birdies, following up her earlier rounds of seven-over-par (one birdie) and three-over-par (three birdies).
Juana Milano contributed strong play in the opening rounds, tallying four birdies across her first 36 holes (four-over-par and six-over-par efforts).
Katie Kobera added to the team's total scoring effort on day one with a seven-over-par opening round featuring two birdies.
