Kayla Smith Earns Career-Best Finish at Ruth's Chris

Rachel Kuehn made a birdie on the 17th hole Sunday to earn medalist honors by a stroke and lead Wake Forest to a 10-shot win at the Ruth's Chris Tar Heel Invitational at UNC Finley Golf Course.

Kuehn shot even-par 72 today and finished the 54-hole event at 11-under 205 (70-63-72), which tied the third-lowest total in tournament history. The junior from Asheville set the women's course record, Wake Forest's 18-hole record and the tournament single-round record on Saturday with a bogey-free, 9-under-par 63.

She eagled the third and fifth holes today, but was 1 over on her round through 16 before making a birdie 4 on the 17th hole.
