Freshman golfer Olivia Cason shines in Mason Rudolph Championship

By Sam Draut–

The age-old mantra in golf,“drive for show, putt for dough” may still be said around golf courses, but freshman Olivia Cason added some flare to her short game last weekend at the Mason Rudolph Championship.

Posting one of the best scores for a freshman in Louisville history, Cason knocked in a fifty-foot putt on her way to four-under-par for the tournament, tying her for fifth in the 90 player field.

In her second collegiate tournament, the Owensboro Catholic product finished with 14 birdies and the best three round score for Louisville since 2014.
