Anna Davis, 16, 'just out there having fun,' wins Augusta National Women's Amateur in debut entry

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Anna Davis didn't know many of the players when the 16-year-old arrived for her first Augusta National Women's Amateur. They all know who she is now.

Davis got into the mix with two birdies around Amen Corner, closed with a 3-under 69 and took the title Saturday when Latanna Stone collapsed over the final two holes at Augusta National.

Stone, a junior at LSU, appeared to have the tournament in hand when she hit the ridge on the par-3 16th and watched her golf ball trickle down to 2 feet for her sixth birdie of the round, giving her a two-shot lead with two holes to play.
