Mirabel Ting
The surprise winner of the individual title was Augusta's Mirabel Ting, who did not compete in the fall following the unexpected death of her father. Ting carded three sub-par rounds of 68-67-68 to post at 13-under, but was caught by the red-hot Leila Raines of Michigan State, who fired a 7-under 65 to catch Ting and force a playoff. Ting completed the emotional victory by draining a 54-hole putt on the second extra hole.
"Mirabel played flawless golf all week," said Augusta head coach Caroline Haase-Hegg. "This was the first college event of her career due to her father suddenly dying last fall, so it is especially sweet that she honored him with a win. She has worked incredibly hard and has been a great teammate. I am excited to see her perform the rest of the spring."
The Tigers will see their next action at the Darius Rucker Intercollegiate, Feb. 27-March 1, in Hilton Head, SC. All three rounds of the tournament will be carried live by the GOLF Channel.
