Greenwoods’ Erica Shepherd Makes Cut at ANWA In the 2023 Augusta National Women’s Amateur (ANWA) Erica Shepherd from Greenwood made the Friday cut and was in the final round played at Augusta National. Over the first two rounds at Champions Retreat, she carded 74-71 to put her solidly in the top 30. Her round of four-over par 76 on Sunday at Augusta National left her with a tie for 22nd. A senior at Duke University, this was Erica’s fourth start at the ANWA and her third crack at Augusta National. She finished T-23 in 2019 and T-16 in 2021 but missed the cut last year. Shepherd was a five-time Junior All-American and represented the United States in both the Junior Solheim Cup and Junior Ryder Cup. In 2017, she won both the U.S Girls’ Junior Championship. Two years later she and her partner, Duke teammate Megan Furtney won U.S. Women’s Amateur Four-Ball. In eight starts this season for the Blue Devils, Erica has five top-25 finishes. She was also invited to compete in the Arnold Palmer Cup for a second consecutive year last summer. Indiana Junior Golf News By Fred Altvater Indiana Golf Journal
