Stanford and UCLA are rivals in the Pac-12 and now face each other with an NCAA title on the line in women's golf. They won quarterfinal and semifinal matches at La Costa to reach the championship match. Stanford is going for its second title in three years and came into the team matches as the No. 1 seed.
CARLSBAD, Calif. — Megha Ganne won her last three holes and top-seeded Stanford held on to beat Southern California on Tuesday, advancing to the title match against UCLA in an all-Pac-12 final for the NCAA Women’s Golf Championship.
Stanford will be going for its second NCAA title in the last three years, and the third time since the NCAA switched to match play for the team title in 2015. Stanford coach Anne Walker noticed her team missing putts early “and I was curious if that was going to linger. And it didn’t.”Ganne was 1 down to Brianna Navarrosa when she birdied the 15th, won the par-3 16th with a par and closed out her 2-and-1 victory with a birdie on the 17th. Kelly Xu of Stanford was 1 up when Catherine Park bogeyed the 15th and left a bunker shot in the sand to bogey the 16th. Xu made a 10-foot par putt on the 16th to close her out.
