After making birdie on the 16th hole to go 1 up on Canadian Julia Hodgson, the Colorado Golf Hall of Famer went double bogey-bogey on 17 and 18, respectively, to see her run end in the national championship.

Hodgson birdied the 18th hole to score a 1-up victory after being 2 down after 13 holes.

Moore finished 7 over par for the 18 holes of her match.

Also ousted on Tuesday in the round of 32 was the other Colorado resident who made match play, Marilyn Hardy of Gunnison. She fell to fourth-seeded Lauren Greenlief of Ashburn, Va., 4 and 3.

Greenlief birdied the first two holes and won four of the first five to take a lead she wouldn’t relinquish. The closest Hardy came after that early stretch was 2 down, which she was as late as No. 11. But Greenlief won 12 with a par and three 13 with a birdie and ended the match on No. 15.

Hardy was 4 over par for the 15 holes.

The Women’s Mid-Am is limited to players 25 and older.

Colorado Golf Hall of Famer Janet Moore of Centennial, who needed a Monday morning playoff to make the match-play bracket, extended her stay later in the day by knocking off second-seeded Erin Bradford of Georgetown, Ky., 1 up.

And Marilyn Hardy, a part-time resident of Gunnison, needed 19 holes to defeat Kayla Barnes of Bellevue, Neb., in the round of 64.

Moore, seeded 63rd, never led against Bradford until making a birdie on the 18th hole for the victory. Moore, who was 2 down through seven holes, actually birdied each of the last two holes after being 1 down through 16.

After being 6 over par through seven holes, Moore played her final 11 in 1 over. The five-time CGA Women’s Stroke Play champion will face Canadian Julia Hodgson in Tuesday’s round of 32.

Similar to Moore, Hardy never led in her match until after the final hole — in her case, the 19th. That’s where the one-time national Women’s Mid-Am semifinalist birdied for the victory.

Hardy had been 2 down after 15, but went 2 under the rest of the way for the win. In the round of 32, Hardy will meet Lauren Greenlief of Ashburn, Va.

The winners of Tuesday morning’s matches will play in the round of 16 in the afternoon.

The Women’s Mid-Am is limited to players 25 and older.

Hardy, a part-time Gunnison resident, easily made match play at age 56 on Sunday at Norwood Hills Country Club in St. Louis, Mo.

And Moore, a Colorado Golf Hall of Famer from Centennial, has a good chance to do likewise at age 54. (The two are pictured, with Hardy at left.)

With the top 64 players in stroke play earning spots in match play, which starts on Monday, Hardy finished 27th on Sunday. And Moore tied for 59th, which leaves her in a playoff on Monday morning that will determine which six players out of the seven at 15-over-par 159 will advance to the match-play bracket.

Hardy shot a 3-over-par 75 in round 2, giving her a 10-over 154 total for 36 holes. A one-time semifinalist in this event, Hardy made one birdie and four bogeys on Sunday in ending up 11 strokes behind stroke-play medalist Shannon Johnson of Norton, Mass.

As for Moore, she fired a 5-over-par 77 on Sunday — five strokes better than Saturday — to move into the top 64. She recorded two birdies, four bogeys and a triple bogey in round 2.

The other Coloradan competing in the 132-player event, Staci Creech of Englewood, failed to advance to match play with her 164 total.

Here are the round-by-round scores for the Coloradans competing at the U.S. Women’s Mid-Amateur:

Hardy (left, with husband Jim) would like to make another deep run in the tournament for players 25 and older, but first things first. She must make match play to extend her stay at this year’s tournament, which began on Saturday at Norwood Hills Country Club in St. Louis, Mo.

Hardy shot a 7-over-par 79 on Saturday to lead the way for the Colorado competitors at the Women’s Mid-Am. She made 11 pars and seven bogeys on day 1 and trails stroke-play leader Meghan Stasi of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., by 10 with one round of stroke play remaining. Stasi has won this national title four times.

The top 64 players — out of the original field of 132 — after Sunday’s round 2 will make the 64-person match-play bracket.

Also in the top 64 after one round was Staci Creech of Englewood, who has earned spots in match play in three of her last four appearances in this national championship. Creech, the wife of new University of Denver athletic director Karlton Creech, shot an 80 and is tied for 63rd place despite taking a triple-bogey 8 on Saturday.

Colorado Golf Hall of Famer Janet Moore opened with an 82 and shares 88th place.

The former pro, competing in the national Women’s Mid-Am for the second straight year, fell 1 up to Terrill Samuel of Canada, the runner-up in this year’s U.S. Senior Women’s Amateur.

Roh was 2 down after six, but won two of the next three holes to square the match after nine. Samuel then claimed the next two with birdies before Roh narrowed the gap to 1 down with a par victory on No. 12. From there, the two halved the final six holes — five with pars and No. 17 with bogeys.

Roh finished 4 over par for Monday’s round, while Samuel was 2 over.

Originally set for early October at Quail Creek Country Club in Naples, Fla., the U.S. Women’s Mid-Am had its dates and site changed due to extensive damage caused by Hurricane Irma.
