Marin shot four-under 68 in the final round on the Masters course to seize the tournament’s 54-hole scoring record (14 under) and win by four shots. She’s the third straight international player to win the ANWA and the first Colombian, male or female, to trumph at Augusta. . It was a sweet Saturday for Marin, whose previous two competitive scores at Augusta were 76 and 78. There was quite the emotional scene at 18 as Marin celebrated with her parents, young brother and mentor, past ANWA runner-up Maria Fassi. On the other end of the spectrum, it was a brual day for 17-year-old Asterisk Talley, with the third-round leader making a quadruple bogey at 12 and double bogey at 16 in shooting 75.
