**Augusta, GA** – Two Spanish golfers, Andrea Revuelta and Carla Bernat, are making a strong push for the Augusta National Women’s Amateur title. Revuelta, a Stanford student, overcame a shoulder injury suffered in a January weightlifting accident to find herself tied for third going into the final round. Despite favoring her shoulder, she’s impressed with her ball-striking, placing first in greens hit through 36 holes.
Bernat, a Kansas State senior, also sits in third place, enjoying a string of strong finishes leading up to the tournament. Her coach, Stew Burke, highlights her “underdog mentality” and strategic preparation, including a practice tournament at a course designed by the same architect as Augusta National. Bernat credits advice from fellow Spaniard and reigning U.S. Amateur champion, Josele Ballester, for honing her chipping skills. The two share a connection, having grown up near each other and trained under the same coach.
Both golfers expressed confidence and excitement ahead of the final round, highlighting their meticulous preparation and determination to compete at their best. Revuelta emphasized a shot-by-shot approach, while Bernat welcomed the opportunity to chase the leaders rather than be chased. The final round promises a thrilling competition as Revuelta and Bernat aim for victory at this prestigious tournament.
