Bardwell Concludes Play at NCAA Championship
May 23, 2021 | Women's Golf
SCOTTSDALE, Az. – Tennessee's Mikayla Bardwell completed the third round of stroke play at the NCAA Championship on Sunday.
Bardwell's round three was highlighted by a hat trick, as the junior from Lewisville, Texas, birdied holes four, five and six after teeing off day three from hole 10.
"It was awesome to be able to have the opportunity to compete at the National Championship this year," Bardwell said. "Although I didn't score the way we would've hoped, I learned a lot about the course and I will be ready to compete in the fall and get the team back here for next year's National Championship.
"It was great to finally see some putts rolling in late in the round today. That gave me a lot of confidence going into this summer and next fall."
After shooting +4 (76) on Sunday, Bardwell wrapped up competition in Arizona tied for 97th with a three-day score of +14 (230).
Bardwell's three consecutive birdies as the end of round three neared momentarily brought her score in her back nine to 1-under, but two late bogeys moved her back above par for the back nine.
As her junior campaign comes to a close, Bardwell recorded four top-seven finishes and scored in the 60s on four occasions in her third year on Rocky Top.
As for the team leaderboard, Stanford leads the field at -18, with Duke (+2) and Oklahoma State (+4) rounding out the top three.
