Well, at least that should take away the over confidence factor for the NCAAs. Better now than later…

Quote:Stanford being sent to Norman is a shocker, as it’s more than double the distance of Gold Canyon from Stanford’s campus (1,619 miles to 769 miles). The trade-off for not getting eighth-ranked Arizona State as a host in the No. 2 slot is sixth-seeded host Oklahoma. Not that it should matter, as the top-ranked Cardinal have won each of their last 10 stroke-play competitions, including the ACC Championship, where they were upset by Wake Forest in the semifinals. Stanford is looking to advance to its 15th straight NCAA regional. If there’s a top-five seed on upset alert it could be Duke, which has dropped seven spots in the rankings since the end of the fall and was just 10th at ACCs. The Sooners are trying to qualify for nationals for the first time since 2018. Baylor squeaked into regionals with exactly a .500 winning percentage. Tulsa, under first-year head coach Mike Roters, added Romaine Masserey midseason and have climbed 35 ranking spots this spring while winning the American Athletic Conference title. The Golden Hurricane are looking for a third straight trip to nationals.

Stanford will qualify for nationals. No question of that. They are 30 shots clear of the 6th place team. But you want to see them work through the competition and the conditions to finish strong, like the #1 team that they are.
There are only about 2 hours of daylight remaining. Doubtful that every team is able to finish today. But Stanford's 5 players should get in their rounds.

In addition, freshman Andrea Revuelta won the individual title.
She got a late start to the spring season because of an injury. Since returning, she has finished 3rd, 1st (ACC) and 1st (NCAA regional). And a month ago she tied for 4th at the Augusta National Women's Amateur. She is currently the #8 ranked player in the country.
If she had been able to play all season, Revuelta would definitely be a candidate for freshman of the year (an award won by a Stanford player 3 of the last 4 years).
