Hampshire’s Katie Mundy scores third US win
EWGA Press Release
Hampshire’s Katie Mundy has continued her superb start in US women’s college golf with her third win from four tournaments.
In her latest event the 18-year-old from Dunwood Manor was 24 shots clear of the field. Her play also helped her team from Western Texas College to reach the national finals of the junior college championships.
The 54-hole event was played on WTC’s home course at Snyder in Texas and the team finished 27 shots ahead of their closest challengers. The field included the 2007 national champions.
Katie, who started college earlier this term, had rounds of 80, level par 72 and 73 during difficult weather conditions.
“The first day, when we played 36 holes, was horrendous. The temperature was zero, the wind chill was 9degF and there were 40mph winds,” said Katie. “The second day was much warmer with winds of 30 mph.”
Katie was in England’s winning team at the 2008 girls’ home internationals and was a member of the English Women’s Golf Association U18 Squad before starting university.
