For the third time in program history, the Arizona Wildcats are National Champions in women’s golf.
It’s the school’s 19th team NCAA national championship, and the first for women’s golf since 2000.
Naturally congrats poured in from all over Arizona Twitter in the immediate aftermath of Haley Moore’s playoff victory, including from arguably the greatest women’s golfer of all-time (and Arizona alum) Annika Sorenstam.
Congrats @ArizonaWGolf on winning the @NCAA

Haley Moore with the sudden-death clincher to give a national title to eighth-seeded Arizona. Great theater.

We re-enacted Haley Moore’s clutch putt on 18.

(This may or may not have been a third take because two other players missed the putts.) pic.twitter.com/EpRC0d5NeX
