About Chattanooga Golf
Coaches Corner
"I thought it was a great success. I hoped we would play a little bit better, and even if we just shaved a few shots off, we could have climbed the leaderboard (in an impressive field). Today was a long day. We've got some injuries and stuff that you deal with, but what are you gonna do?" – Coach
Colette Murray on the weekend
"I think she would say she would hope for maybe top 10 or even better. She was right there but definitely peaking at the right time and in a tough test. I think the fact that it was over par scores individually and as a team by some of the best teams in the country attests to the difficulty of the golf course." – Coach Murray on Healey's play
