Ana Paula Valdes of Morelia, Mexico claimed the 2014 Sea Pines Junior Heritage. Valdes started the day with concern, she explained, “Every time I play Harbour Town, I am expecting the worst. Today I played my best.”
Valdes played, as she described it, was terrible at the IJGT IJGA Invitational back in December here at Harbour Town. She came into the round looking for revenge.
The day started with a pair of pars and then a double on the third. Instead of getting flustered, Ana dug in and played the rest of her front nine level par.
Ana carded a couple early bogies on the back but settled down with the lead in hand and played the tough finishing six holes with all pars.
“It feels amazing! Realizing that hard work does pay off… all that extra time being away from home paid off.” she explained.
