NEWS OF ANOTHER WIN FOR ENGLISH STUDENT ON US COLLEGE CIRCUIT
JESSICA BRADLEY FROM DEVON
SCORES FIFTH WIN IN USA
St. Augustine, Florida – There is little slowing down Jessica Bradley as the senior Lynn University women's golfer collected her 17th
consecutive top-10 finish and fifth US college tournament victory after
taking first place individually at the Flagler Fall Slam.
The Fighting Knights finished second out of 15 teams to end their fall season with three consecutive top-three finishes.
Bradley has now finished in the top-10 of a tournament a program-best 29 times in her career while her five medallist honours is also a school record.
The Bishops Nympton, North Devon, England, native shot a second-round, one-over par 73 at the Marsh Creek Country Club for a 145 total, just enough to hold off challenger Patricia Schmidt (146) of Armstrong State over a par-72 course of 6,062yd.
Lynn (606) held a four-shot lead heading into the final round, and even improved by two strokes from the previous day, but host Flagler (601) posted a tournament-low 293 to pick up the win. Seminole State (614) held a firm grasp on third place with Armstrong (616) and Barry (624) rounding out the top-five.
The Fighting Knights concluded the fall season with one tournament victory, one runner-up finish and two top-five finishes.
They open their championship season on Sunday, February 8, 2015 at the World Golf Invitational in St. Augustine, Florida
