Davis Finishes Third as Lady Vols Conclude NCAA Regionals


Bermuda Run, N.C. – Tennessee women’s golf finished the Bermuda Run NCAA Regional in sixth place, missing the team cut for the NCAA Championship by five strokes.

Junior Bailey Davis finished the tournament 8-under (208), tied for third place, which qualifies her to compete at the NCAA Championship from May 17-22 in Carlsbad, California. 

The Lady Vols produced a team score of 3-over (867), the fifth-lowest score at an NCAA Regional in program history. The first round was the highlight of their tournament, where they posted the second-lowest team score (278) at an NCAA event in program history and Bailey Davis posted the lowest individual score (64). 

The third-place finish by Davis is her best of the season and the second-best of her collegiate career (second at Mercedes-Benz Collegiate Championship in September 2022). It is also the second-best finish by a Lady Vol on the season (Manassanan Chotikabhukkana finished second at the Mercedes-Benz Collegiate Championship in October 2023).

Senior Kayla Holden finished tied for 29th at 3-over (219); Chotikabhukkana finished tied for 37th at 7-over (223).
