ATLANTA – The morning after she lost the NCAA Championship, Hayley Davis didn’t lock herself in her hotel room, or console her Baylor teammates, or dwell on what could have been. She boarded a flight to Australia.
Technically, it was a pre-scheduled study abroad program for her human health performance and recreational services major, but it proved to be the perfect antidote to the most traumatic moment of her career.
College golf fans won’t soon forget Davis.
The 22-year-old was the heart and soul of a Baylor team that no one expected to reach the NCAA finals against Stanford.
