Vanderbilt’s Lynn Lim held off a stacked field and coastal winds to win the 2025 Sea Island Women’s Amateur
Lynn Lim was hoping a breakthrough victory might be around the corner, but the Vanderbilt standout didn’t necessarily expect it to take place this week on the Georgia coast when opening her summer playing schedule in the Sea Island Women’s Amateur.
Playing on the Seaside Course at the renowned Sea Island Golf Club, which annually hosts the SEC Men’s Golf Championships each spring, things fell into place for Lim this week on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, where she emerged as the champion Saturday afternoon in the fifth edition of this three-day event that is quickly growing in stature in the women’s amateur game.| Pos | Player | Hometown | R1 | R2 | R3 | Total |
