Indeed yes! Stanford has been so dominant lately that I forgot that they were the #1 seed going into match play in 2022. It turns out that if the Cardinal finish tomorrow in 1st it would be the 5th year in a row with Stanford winning the stroke play competition at NCAAs.
But there will be drama tomorrow for the tv audience to follow. First will be the competition for the individual title. Then there will be the scrum for the final spot or spots to qualify for match play.
The cream has risen to the top of the leaderboard. 10 of the top 12 teams in the Clippd rankings are currently in the top 12. Only missing is #7 Wake Forest and #12 LSU.
I am excited that 3 Stanford golfers are currently in the top 10. They are very competitive people, but I hope that they don't expend all of their energy vying for the individual title. You need plenty of gas in the tank to get through match play, especially Tuesday which could include 36 holes. I think that fatigue caught up with Rose Zhang in 2023 when she hit some uncharacteristic loose shots on the way to losing the afternoon semifinal match to Brianna Navarrosa of USC.
Is Anne Walker the best coach currently at Stanford? Thom Glielmi and John Tanner have more NCs. But they compete in sports which have a limited number of NCAA teams. What Coach Walker has done and continues to do is very, very impressive.

My vote is a Yes. She is obviously a World Wide Recruiter and her own background probably contributes toward here ability to attract those talented women who come to Stanford to play for her. Our Softball Coach deserves a nod for what she has accomplished in a short period of time.
Men's gymnastics is pretty fair also and in a couple of years we will know a lot more about what Kyle Smith can do.
I have no idea what sort of equipment and attire payments lady golfers can earn. Most of the team is in the top 30 of the worlds female amateur golfers. Technically I don't think amateur golfers can get paid except through NIL deals, but I assume some our players are probably making a tidy sum from such earnings, but maybe not. Right now I vote for Walker as Women's Coach of the Year. Every year she does this make Stanford more likely to continue to attract similar talent.

It’s not enough to be the best team, you have to be the better team for three consecutive days, so running into a hot team or having an off day is enough to cost a national championship.
I think Stanford had a great day on Friday, but a very challenging start time. I think it would be very interesting to see scores versus tee time for this course this weekend.
While some have talked about the "anything goes" nature of match play, it does mean that each hole is played by the competitors at the same time.

I asked the Golf Week reporter who is covering the event. He didn't have the data but someone else chimed in with this information.
Day 1:
Morning = 296/+8
Afternoon = 294/+6
Day 2:
Morning = 290.66/+2.66
Afternoon = 301.6/+13.6
Day 3:
Morning = 288.4/+0.4

The numbers are confounded by the fact that Stanford played in the afternoon on Day 1, and the morning of Day 2 and 3.

FWIW, Day 2 (Saturday) afternoon was windy and blustery, with light drizzle around 5-6pm. (We’re 20 miles south of LaCosta) but similar coastal climate.
Day 3 (Sunday) morning was warm and sunny.
Ditto today.

Stanford is running away with this. We're now in first at -30. Northwestern is in second at -7. To put this in perspective there's more room between us and second than there is between second and thirteenth (UCLA at 13 over, five spots below the cut line). Scores are still moving of course but Stanford will NOT be falling out of the top 8.
We can safely celebrate making the match play rounds.

The individual race is, perhaps surprisingly, not over yet - but it darn nearly is with Arkansas' Maria Jose Marin sitting at -12 a full three strokes clear as she's finished 11 holes. Arkansas as a team is sitting at +2 despite the efforts of Marin. It's worth keeping an eye on our quarterfinal opponent, as we currently get #3 South Carolina, followed by a potential date with ACC Champ #4 Florida State or #11 Northwestern in the semifinals. Still lots of movement possible with golf to be played this afternoon.

Not over. Xu is 2 down but on her remaining holes, she's had 1, 2, 2 birdies in previous days (plus a double bogey).
Ting is also 2 down and birdied her last 2. She's had 0,2, 2 birdies in previous days on remaining holes.
Wish I were home watching it.

Looks like Stanford vs. Virginia in the quarters tomorrow morning. Virginia made the match play portion of the ACC championship but was upset by Cal. They are ranked 10th in the country.
UVA of course does not have the roster strength of Stanford. But they have 2 strong players Propeck and Sambach, both of whom are seniors. They have a grad student, soph and frosh among the other 3 players. Their coach Ria Scott attended high school in Union City and was a student-athlete at Cal with Anne Walker.

Ouch. What a collapse by South Carolina to let Virginia sneak in. South Carolina had five bogeys on the last two holes and that ended their hopes of making match play.
The bracket looks like this if Northwestern holds where they are on the final few holes.
Stanford - Virginia
3. Northwestern (#11) - 6. Arkansas (2)
4. Florida State (4) - 5. Southern Cal (9)
2. Oregon (5) - 7.Texas (6)

Ouch. What a collapse by South Carolina to let Virginia sneak in. South Carolina had five bogeys on the last two holes and that ended their hopes of making match play.
The bracket looks like this if Northwestern holds where they are on the final few holes.
Stanford - Virginia

Amazing to see Kelly Xu finish 3rd at NCAA's! Really happy that she's leading the way - and fun to watch.
Just saw the start time for the quarterfinals. That's an early start in the morning!

Stanford starts on the 1st tee tomorrow vs. UVA at 6:50 am. You have to start early to fit in two rounds and the NCAA is playing both the quarterfinals and semifinals tomorrow. Stanford played Round 2 and Round 3 at the same early hour.
It's a big day!!! The team has prepared all year to be in the position that they are in now. And they have prepared all year for what is to come, match play, potentially 36 holes in a day right after 72 exhausting holes of stroke play. All the pressure is on Stanford. They have been #1 all year. Can they play at the same level against an opponent that has nothing to lose, no expectations to meet. Players definitely feel pressure.
3 of Stanford's players have been here before, 2 have not. For Virginia, none of their players have NCAA match experience.
The lineups are set.
Match 1 - Paula Martin Sampedro (soph) vs. Kennedy Swedick (frosh)
Match 2 - Meja Ortengren (frosh) vs. Megan Propeck (senior)
Match 3 - Kelly Xu (junior) vs. Jaclyn Laha (soph)
Match 4 - Megha Ganne (junior) vs. Amanda Sambach (senior)
Match 5 - Andrea Revuelta (frosh) vs. Rebecca Skoler (grad student)
Ganne vs. Sambach is the marquee match. They were teammates on the US Palmer Cup team last year. Xu vs. Laha looks like a big advantage Stanford. The Cardinal will need that point. Virginia will take a lot of momentum if Laha pulls off the upset.
It's going to be fun! Golf Channel coverage begins at 9 am.
