Arkansas senior golfer Maria Fassi finished runner-up at the inaugural Augusta National Women’s Amateur on Saturday.
Fassi finished the 54-hole tournament at 6-under par, three shots behind defending NCAA champion Jennifer Kupcho of Wake Forest.
Kupcho rallied to win the tournament with an eagle and three birdies in the final six holes. Trailing Fassi by two shots, Kupcho eagled the par-5 13th and finished with a 5-under 67.
Kupcho is the first woman to win a tournament at Augusta National, which did not permit female members until 2012. The club announced the tournament last year to promote women’s golf and serve as an appetizer for its biggest event, The Masters, next week.
