Stanford, Wake Forest advance to semifinals of NCAA women's championships

Stanford survived an upset bid and Wake Forest edged a conference rival as both teams advanced to the semifinals of the NCAA DI Women’s Golf Championships.

The top-seeded Cardinal defeated eighth-seeded Pepperdine, 4-1.

The third-seeded Demon Deacons knocked out sixth-seeded Florida State, 3-1-1.

Cardinal sophomore Rose Zhang won her second consecutive individual title on Monday and continued her dominant play on Tuesday with a 6-and-5 victory over Pepperdine senior Reese Guzman.

That gave Stanford a 1-0 lead but the Waves, making their first match-play appearance, knotted it up with Jeneath Wong’s 5-and-3 victory over freshman Megha Ganne.
