Former Tanque Verde standout Bailey Bish won the USGA U.S. Adaptive Open Championship held at the Sand Creek Station in Newton, Kansas from July 8-10. Bish shot an 8-over-par 224 (69-78-77) to beat Kim Moore of Battle Creek, Michigan by four strokes.
Bish’s 69 in the first round is the Open Women’s scoring record.
“I learned that it’s hard to play golf, and even if there is challenges, you can push back and keep going,” Bish told Tod Leonard of Golf Digest.. “The mistakes will get overwritten by other accomplishments.”
University of Arizona Adaptive Athletics standout Amanda Cunha won the Vision Impairment category (81-85-71: 237).
