Chasing my dreams one shot at a time
What a fun day. I got to do what I love more than anything- play golf with a chance to win a tournament. And today, it worked out. I shot 74 and won the Idaho Women's Amateur for the second time. I played consistently for 3 rounds and saw it pay off with a 5-shot victory. It is a wonderful feeling to sigh for relief at the end of 3 rounds with a trophy in hand, knowing hard work has paid off. One of my favorite aspects of this tournament was its proximity to home. It is a rare treat for me to have friends and family be able to come watch with ease. Seeing the people I love out on the course means so much. I'd like to send a big thanks to all those who were there and everyone who sent their well wishes! This is my last Idaho Amateur before turning professional, so it is special to get to put my name on its list of champions one last time. Thanks to everyone involved in Idaho junior and amateur golf for a great 14 years.
