Not simply content with winning the Dorothy Pease Junior Trophy for competitors ages 18 and under, Xu's 36-hole total of 4-under 144 (68-72) earned her the George III Amateur Trophy awarded to the overall first place winner.
Wait - there's more.
Xu, 18, partnered with future Stanford teammate Sadie Englemann of Austin, Texas to win the Howell Team Trophy with a 6-under score of 282 (140-142). Reagan Zibilski of Springfield, Mo, and Marissa Wenzler of Dayton, Ohio shared runner-up honors after finishing at 3-under par (69-72) (72-69).
“I had a lot of close shots, a lot of looks at birdie so I felt really good and had a really good mindset,” said Xu. “Today I had only eight holes left to play so it was harder to get into the groove of things…but it was fun.”
Xu will join another prized recruit, Megha Ganne, at Stanford in the fall. Like Ganne, she is a first-team AJGA Rolex All-American who was named the 2021 Southern California Golf Association's Player of the Year in 2021 after she won the SCGA Women's Amateur Championship. She is currently ranked 10th in the AJGA girls' rankings.
With all due respect to 2019 ANWA winner Jennifer Kupcho, Xu also has the distinction of being the first female champion at Augusta National, winning the inaugural Drive, Chip, and Putt (7-9 age group) as a 9-year-old fourth-grader in 2014.
