NEWTON, N.C. -- Final results of the 38th Carolinas Women's Four-Ball Championship conducted by the Carolinas Golf Association at Catawba Country Club in Newton, N.C. on Wednesday, August 5, 2015 (5900 yards, Par 36-36--72, Course Rating: 74.4/132).
Overcoming a three-shot deficit, Courtney McKim of Raleigh, N.C. and Stephanie Pribonic of Wake Forest, N.C. posted the round of the day, four-under 68. Their two-day total of seven-under 137 was enough for a one shot victory.
"We thought we had to shoot about eight-under today to win," said McKim. "With six or seven holes left, we asked one of the rules officials and found out we were close."
After carding a first round 66, leaders Jaelyn Tindal of Rock Hill, S.C. and Maddisen Cox of Easley, S.C. had a disappointing day, making three bogeys en route to a two-over 74. They finished tied for sixth place.
This is the first CGA championship for both 24-year-old McKim, who played collegiate golf at the University of Alabama, and 20-year-old Pribonic, who is a rising senior on NC State's golf team.
Two teams tied for second at 6-under 138, sisters Lily and Grace Yatawara of Salisbury, N.C.; and Rachel Jones of Asheboro, N.C. and Alexis Kershaw of Winston-Salem, N.C.
