Less than a year later, the new women's format leads to a Stanford NC. In the old days, U$ would already have the hardware and Stanford would have felt good about a 4th place result.Â
As a golf fan, I really like the new format because of the drama it produces. Nothing can be more exciting in golf than team match play events. As a Stanford fan, I LOVE the new format! All right now!!

I definitely got to relive the excitement. Now hoping I have it TiVoed. Only regret is that Stackhouse didn't drain her birdie putt; always better to win it by sinking the shot than by having your opponent miss. Still, ALL RIGHT NOW!
Here's the birdie putt on 18.
