“ It was just an incredible week,” junior Emma Talley said. “I had been playing well up to this point, and everything kind of came together and clicked just at the right time. God’s blessed me with so much, and I just took it and ran with it.”

Talley entered the final round with a one-stroke lead. She started on the back nine, and played the first nine at even-par, making pars on all nine holes. When her birdie putt on the par-4 18th lipped out and Duke’s Leona Maguire took the lead at 1-under, Talley would answer right back with a birdie on the par-4 first.
