Kylie Eaton, an incoming freshman at University of Illinois, started her summer off strong with the three shot win

Kylie Eaton from Greenville, R.I., shot 3-under 213, following her rounds of 73-70-70 to register a three-shot win at the Women’s Eastern Amateur title at Buck Hill Golf Club at Buck Hills Fall, PA.

Eaton entered the final round with a two-shot lead over the field and added a final round 70 to clinch the title with almost no visible challenge coming from the nearest competitors.

Michelle Cox of Penn State carded rounds of 72-74-70 to register a runner-up finish at even-par.

Ami Gianchandani, a graduate student at Auburn, a recent transfer from Yale, carded rounds of 76-69-72 to finish third at 1-over.

Eaton, who has committed to the University of Illinois, secured her first win of the season. In 2023, she won the New England Junior Amateur title, finished as the runner-up at Rhode Island Girls Junior, and claimed third place at the Rhode Island Women’s Amateur Championship.
