Bridget Boczar was back on familiar ground, and she took advantage.
Boczar, of Canton, won the 110th Michigan Women's Amateur Championship on Friday at Katke Cousins Golf Course on the campus of Oakland University, where Boczar played the first two years of her collegiate career. Boczar held off Macomb's Lauren Timpf, 2-up, in the championship match, sealing the ******* le with a 10-footer for birdie on the 18th hole.
"I was able to be confident and come out here and have some fun," said Boczar, 22. "It was just an awesome week."
Boczar, who finished her college career at Baylor University and will graduate in December, had two tight matches Friday, beating Elise Fennell of Central Michigan and Kentwood, 1-up, in Friday's morning semifinal match.
In the afternoon championship match, Boczar and Timpf traded momentum swings, with neither player holding more than a 1-up lead until the final hole. Timpf made birdies at Nos. 11 and 12 to go 1 up, before Boczar won the 13th hole with a pair and the 14th with a birdie to retake the lead. The two traded pars on the next three holes, before Boczar sealed the deal on the 18th.
