Julia Boros (Pettit), one of the most decorated student-athletes in the history of University of Georgia Golf, passed away on Monday. She was 43.
Boros became just the fourth golfer in the history of Georgia women’s golf to play in every tournament of her collegiate career when she competed in 44 consecutive events from 1994-98. She posted eight top-10 and 18 top-20 performances for the Lady Bulldogs.
Boros enjoyed a standout senior season, with five top-10 and nine top-20 efforts in 11 tournaments, including winning medalist honors at the 1998 Lady Gator Invitational. Boros was named National Player of the Month in February 1998 following her individual victory in Gainesville.
