WILMINGTON, N.C. – Tennessee women's golf will travel to Wilmington, North Carolina, to compete in the 21st annual Landfall Tradition from Friday, Oct. 27 to Sunday, Oct. 29.
The final tournament of the fall season will feature three days of 18 holes each and take place at Dye Golf Course at Country Club of Landfall. Hosted by UNC Wilmington, tee times will begin at 8:30 a.m. ET on Friday and Saturday for rounds one and two, while Sunday's final round will feature an 8:45 a.m. ET shotgun start.
Last time out, Tennessee hosted the Mercedes Benz Collegiate Championship at Cherokee Country Club, where they placed ninth behind Manassanan Chotikabhukkana's second-place finish.
LADY VOLS LINEUP
Chotikabhukkana is coming off the best tournament of her collegiate career at the Mercedes Benz Collegiate Championship. Catapulted by a 67 in round two and 69 in round three, she placed second with a career-best 7-under (206) at Knoxville's Cherokee Country Club. The sophomore placed in the top 15 in her last three tournaments and has netted an average round score of 71.00 over that stretch.
Gilly's senior season has already seen both her lowest-ever score relative to par (-8) at the Cougar Classic and her best-ever finish (T-4th) at the Mary Fossum Invitational. Last time out, she used two straight even-par (71) rounds to place 20th at the Mercedes Benz Collegiate Championship.
Kayla Holden
The Port St. Lucie, Florida, native placed 5th at the Tar Heel Invitational in early October, her best-ever finish. She used two consecutive 67's in rounds two and three to shoot 6-under (210) the lowest score of her collegiate career.
Arora will make her fourth appearance of the season after missing the season opener at the Cougar Classic. Most recently, she leveraged an even-par (71) score in the final round of the Mercedes Benz Collegiate Championship to shoot 5-over (218) and place 33rd, both her best score and finish of the season.
Lopez-Lanchares is making her third appearance of the season and her second consecutive cameo in the starting five. Her first appearance as a starter saw her shoot 10-over (223) to tie for 50th place at the Mercedes Benz Collegiate Championship.
