Kendall Todd has played a pivotal role in Arkansas women's golf’s rise to one of the top programs in the country. This season, she shattered the school record for the lowest 18-hole score in program history and the lowest score to par—tying an NCAA record in the process. But when she secured the biggest win of her career at the Darius Rucker Invitational, she didn’t even realize she had won. In this episode, Kendall shares how she developed a no-pressure mindset, her unexpected path into golf, and what it was like playing the final hole under pressure. Plus, she looks ahead to her next big stage—Augusta National.
