"It was a pretty long couple of days with playing 36 holes on Monday," Worby said after the final round. "I was just able to manage the course well and hit the ball really solid. I delt with the rain well and kept bogeys off my scorecard."
The redshirt freshman's three-round score of 5-under (211) marks a new career low and her tie for second place finish is also a career best.
