Who won the Augusta National Women's Amateur?
Bernat Escuder won this year's Augusta National Women's Amateur on April 5. Escuder won by a single shot over Asterisk Talley. They both shot a four-under-par 68 in the final round on Saturday.
Talley opened her round with a hole-out for eagle on the first hole. She applied the pressure on the final holes of the back nine by making birdie on both holes 16 and 17.
Escuder birdied the two par fives on the back nine: holes 13 and 15. She parred 16 but bogeyed 17. Her and Tally both parred the 18th hole and Escuder won by a shot.
The 21-year-old senior at Kansas State is a native of Spain. She finished three shots clear of defending Augusta National Women's Amateur champion Lottie Woad of England.
The esteemed Augusta National has been a place where many Spaniards have found success. Five-time major champion Seve Ballesteros won two green jackets at The Masters in 1980 and 1983.
Ballesteros' close friend Jose Maria Olazabal won his own two major champions at The Masters in 1994 and 1999. Sergio Garcia won his first and only major championship at The Masters in 2017. While Jon Rahm won the prestigious event in 2023.
At the age of 13, Escuder began working with Sergio Garcia's father, Victor, who is a swing coach.
Runner-up Asterisk Talley is a native of Chowchilla, California, which is not far from Yosemite National Park. Talley also played in the event last year and was the youngest player in the event at age 15. She finished tied for eighth last year and coming into this year's tournament was 14th in the Women's Amateur Golf Ranking.
The Masters is set to begin on Thursday, with players expected to begin arriving at Augusta National on Monday.
