Royal shot rounds scores of 66-73-68. This performance came on the heels of her first top 20 placement at the Mason Rudolph Championship.
Royal's 6-under 66 in round one marked a career low. Three of the lowest single-round scores of her Royal's career have come in her last four rounds of competition.
Winning the Windy City
The Bruins tied a 54-hole program record of 32-under 832 to win the Windy City Collegiate Classic on Oct. 3 for Alicia Um Holmes' first victory as head coach. The win came in a field against nine top-25 programs. Three Bruins placed in the top 10, including Royal who finished runner-up at 9-under.
UCLA's 16-under 272 in round one was the fourth lowest 18-hole score in program history. All five Bruins shot under par in the round. Overall, UCLA's lineup went 12-for-15 on under par rounds for the tournament.
Returning Leaders
Juniors Campos and Canales, who were UCLA's top two golfers a season ago in terms of scoring average, each shot under par in all three rounds to record top-10 finishes at the Windy City Classic. It marked the 10th and 11th top 10 finishes of Campos and Canales' careers, respectively.
Hot Start
UCLA has moved from unranked to No. 7 in the Golfweek rankings through its first three tournaments of the season. All five Bruins who have teed it up in stroke play – Campos, Canales, Royal, Villegas and Nobilio – are under par on the season for a combined scoring average of 71.0. UCLA's golfers have shot under par in 18 of 30 individual rounds to begin the 2023-2024 season.
Historic 18-Hole Marks
UCLA has recorded two of the six lowest 18-hole scores in program history this season. The Bruins shot a 15-under 273 in round three of the Mason Rudolph Championship on Sept. 24.
UCLA rode that momentum into its very next round with a 16-under 272 to open the Windy City Collegiate Classic on Oct. 2. That mark is tied for the third lowest 18-hole score in program history and is UCLA's best showing since round three of the 2018 Golfweek Conference Challenge.
2022-23 In Review
UCLA's season was highlighted by six top 3 finishes, including three team victories at The Match in the Desert, The Beach Invitational and the inaugural Battle for the Bell versus crosstown rival USC. UCLA's best 54-hole score came at the Anuenue Spring Break Classic where it shot 10-under (286-283-285).
Leading the charge in 2022-23 was Campos who earned consensus first-team All-American acclaim and was named an ANNIKA Award Top 10 Finalist. Campos led UCLA with a 71.42 scoring average which ranked 20th in the NCAA and sixth all-time for a single season in school history. She won the first two events of her collegiate career in back-to-back tournaments at the Anuenue Spring Break Classic and Silverado Showdown. Campos also led UCLA with eight top 10s and finished outside the top 20 only once in 10 stroke play tournaments. She ended the season ranked as the No. 7 golfer in the nation, per Golfweek.
Joining Campos on the All-Pac-12 Team was Canales who averaged 72.9 strokes per round. The Calabasas, Calif. native also ranked second behind Campos with six top 10s and nine top 20s. She claimed the first medal of her collegiate career and shot UCLA's lowest round of the season when she tied for first at The Match in the Desert with a 7-under 65.
The Bruins earned an NCAA Regionals (San Antonio) berth for the 23rd straight season in 2022-23 before failing to make the four-team cut line to advance to the NCAA Championships. Campos finished runner-up at the event at 4-under (70-72-70) and failed to qualify for the NCAA Championships as an individual.
