Monday Headlines: Jensen Castle Edition

What a ride it was for Kentucky Wildcat golfer Jensen Castle this weekend at the US Women Amateur Championship.

On Saturday, Castle escaped an early exit en route to her title as current NCAA Champion and No. 2 amateur Rachel Heck missed a four-foot par putt on 18 to eliminate Castle from the competition.

“I couldn’t believe she missed it on 18. When I knew she gave me that opportunity I was like, ‘All right, I birdied this earlier, I’m going to I birdie this again,’ and I went after it. Knew the same wind direction and everything,” said Castle.
