THE WOODLANDS, Texas — By the time Amari Avery got to her hotel room in The Woodlands, Texas, Wednesday night, it was close to midnight. Fresh off a team victory at the Pac-12 Championships, the USC sophomore felt her eyes start to shut around 1 a.m. Later that afternoon, she teed off in the first round of the Chevron Championship without having ever seen the golf course.
“To be honest,” said Avery, “I didn’t really have that much nerves coming in just because I came straight off the plane from playing the final round at Pac-12s. I was kind of like, ‘Oh, just more golf.’ Hopefully four more rounds, and I think we’ve secured it.”
