Pilkington Wins Nebraska Women's Senior Amateur in Playoff

Lincoln's Jill Pilkington won the 46th Nebraska Senior Women's Amateur Championship in a playoff at Oak Hills Country Club on Thursday. Pilkington made several clutch putts down the stretch to force a playoff with Elkhorn's Miae Hatfield at 164 (+22). Pilkington rolled in a par putt on her final hole to get into the playoff, and eventually won with a par on the third playoff hole for her first title. Read the recap and watch the champion interview below, and see full results under the Scoring tab above.
