WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. -- The Williams College women's golf team Sunday made a 10-stroke surge to take home the first-place trophy of the 50th annual Williams Golf Invitational.
Williams posted a second day of score of 290 to break the one-day invitational and course record set by Amherst College on Saturday. Previously, the team record at Taconic Golf Club was 296, set in 2019. The two-day combined score of 590 also shattered the Williams program's two-day record of 308-289 (at Ledges in Hadley, Mass).
Amherst took second with second day score of 300, combined for a 592 and New York University placed third with a combined score of 616.
Individually, Williams sophomore Tiyani Zhuang followed up her three-over 74 yesterday with an even-par 71 on Sunday. Her two-day total of 145 put her atop the leaderboard. Amherst's Gihoe Seo, who shot 71 yesterday, posted a score of 74.
Seo and Zhuang shared the top score for the tournament, but the medalist honors were ultimately given to Zhuang after a one-hole playoff on hole 9. While Seo holed out for a bogey, Zhuang's bunker shot hit the pin and dropped allowing her to one-putt for par.
