LOS ANGELES- Auburn's Megan Schofill has advanced to the match play semifinal round of the 123rd U.S. Women's Amateur that will be played on Saturday at Bel-Air Golf Club.
After posting a 4-under 136 in the stroke play portion of the event to advance to match play, Schofill posted match play victories over Jackie Rogowicz, Kelly Xu and Caitlin Peirce.
In Friday's quarterfinal round, the Monticello, Florida native won a tightly contested 2&1 match over Anna Davis, who holds a World Amateur Golf Ranking of 5th.
In her match against Davis, Schofill won the first hole before the two players tied the next 13 consecutive holes. After Davis tied the match on No. 15, Schofill then won the next two holes to claim the victory.
"A lot of great golf between the two of us," Schofill said after Friday's match. "Really tough match when you're playing against anyone left in the field right now. Feels great to be able to see the hard work and play a really great round of golf and be able to get the job done."
