Fourth-ranked UW women win

The No. 4 ranked Washington women’s golf team recorded its fourth, first place finish of the season as the Huskies stole the show at the UC Irvine Invitational. Playing at the Santa Ana Country Club, Washington finished the tournament 10-under par, finishing 11 strokes ahead of the next team, No. 2 USC.

The four wins this season are the most since the Dawgs won five times way back in 1977.

Washington entered the final round at 10-under with an 11-stroke lead, which is exactly how things would finish. The Dawgs finished the day at an even-par 288 with the only teams having better final rounds being No. 19 UNLV and SMU. The Running Rebels had the best day, shooting a 12-under par 276, but finished fourth overall on the final leaderboard.

All five Huskies were in the top-25 individuals, with four Husky players finishing in the top 10. Both Charlotte Thomas and Jennifer Yang finished tied-for-third place with a score of 4-under 212. Thomas was sitting at tenth place heading into the final.
