On a day recognized as Women’s Golf Day, college teammates Delaney Elliott and Kelly Hooper of Montana State, and Megan and Kaylee Knadler of Wyoming, celebrated by making the finals of the most popular CGA women’s championship on the schedule.
Both of Tuesday’s semifinal matches in the CGA Women’s Mashie at Coal Creek Golf Course in Louisville were very close.
The Knadlers, the second seeds from Phoenix, outlasted Colorado Golf Hall of Famers Janet Moore and Christie Austin, who have won the Mashie six times together, in 23 holes.
And Elliott and Hooper — the top seeds from Superior and Spokane, Wash., respectively — edged Tiffany Maurycy of Cherry Creek Country Club and Holly Schaefer of Columbine Country Club, 1 up.
The two teams made up of college players will square off on Wednesday in the championship flight finals of the four-ball match play tournament. The two-course event will conclude at Legacy Ridge Golf Course in Westminster.
The Women’s Mashie featured a starting field of 103 two-person teams and 13 different divisions of competition.
