Wow. Tough luck! It's pretty amazing, though, that a 10th grader has been competing at the top for so long, and that she was in the making for back-to-back championships.

Glad she did the right thing and turned herself in, but it just serves as a lesson to always check the score cards before signing. That's something that's stressed that many young golfers don't pay attention to, because they don't think it will happen or matter, but, especially on the last hole when you've been playing all day and are finally finishing up or realize you've captured another state title, it is easy to write down a wrong score or sign a score card without looking.

Hate to hear this happened to this young lady. However what a noble thing to do once she realized what she had done. Best of luck to her in the future.

She WILL win the state tournament again.

Knowing Emma, I wouldn't expect anything less from her. She's a super golfer, but she's an even better person.

That's what I have been told! :thumb::thumb:

A classy young lady for sure! I feel so bad for her and the golfer that scored her. But you are given only one reputation and once that is tarnished you can not get it back. Emma, if I could say one thing to you it would be that you should be proud of yourself for what you did and in my mind you were the champion based upon your golf skills and your sense of integrity.

I cant believe that each golfer doesnt keep their own card at the state championshop event. The KHSAA needs to re-look at that. I'm not insinuating anything about the person in the group who kept the lone score card for the group, but that has to be changed.

[jahearme]

On the scorecards provided at the state tournament there is a place on the bottem for each player to keep their own score. In fact, it's on a perferrated edge that the player can tear off and "match up" their scorecard when they are finished.

From what I gather, Emma simply made a mistake. It happens all the time. It just happened at a really bad time for Emma.
