Nebraska Women’s Amateur Championship

Badura Cruises to Back-to-Back Titles

It was an 18-hole coronation on Wednesday at The Club at Indian Creek in Elkhorn, as Aurora's Danica Badura grew her lead and cruised to win the 47^th Nebraska Women’s Amateur Championship for her second-straight title. On a day when only six players in the championship division broke 80, Badura put together a 75 (+3) to secure an eight-stroke win with a 221 (+5) total. It's back-to-back titles for the University of South Dakota golfer, who won her first title last year by two strokes. She's the 11th player to win multiple Nebraska Women's Amateur titles.
