BIG SOUTH RELEASE
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The Big South Conference announced Thursday that UNC Asheville's Madyson Gold had been named the League's Women's Golfer of the Week. It marks the second weekly honor of Gold's career and marks the first such honor for an Asheville student-athlete since October 14, 2021 when Venecia Zaia took home the same accolade.
Gold finished tied for third earlier this week at the Jupiter Women's Invitational in Jupiter, Florida. Overall, Gold finished with a +4 for the tournament, but she was a rapid mover in Tuesday's final round shooting a 67 (-3). Thanks to her -3, Gold moved up 15 spots in the final day alone.
The score of 67 is tied for the lowest score for a Bulldog in the short history of the program. Furthermore, led by Gold, the Bulldogs finished the third round with a team-record stroke total in a round finishing at 286.
Gold and the rest of the Bulldogs will be back in action on October 17-18 when they compete in the Buccaneer Classic in Goose Creek, South Carolina.
