EVANS -- A year ago, Kiara Romero was just having fun during the round of a lifetime at Augusta National Golf Club.
Romero had missed the cut after 36 tough holes at Champions Retreat Golf Club, but the light at the end of the tunnel was the guaranteed practice round everyone in the field at the Augusta National Women's Amateur gets to play prior to the final round.
She didn't take any notes that Friday, instead opting to stay in the moment and enjoy herself at Augusta National.
A year later, her practice round carried a little more weight.
