At the Golfweek Red Sky Classic, Pepperdine posted the second-lowest 54-hole team score in program history on the way to a runner-up finish. The Waves went 28 under par as a team, with Kylee Choi placing 3rd and matching the freshman program record with a 7-under 65 in the final round. Jeneath Wong and Eunseo Choi also cracked the top ten, and all five Waves shot under par in Sunday’s round.
The par-71 Stanford Golf Course is one of collegiate golf’s most prestigious venues, having hosted multiple Pac-12 Championships, NCAA Regionals, and U.S. Amateur qualifying events. The course is set to host a 2026 NCAA Regional this upcoming May, as the Waves may see the course again down the line this season.
