ALBANY, Ga. Rising Ole Miss senior Sara Grantham advanced to the second round of championship match play at the 94^th annual Southern Amateur at Stonebridge Golf and Country Club Tuesday.

Grantham defeated Laura Goble of Augusta, Ga., 4 and 3 to move onto the second round where she will face Sara Beth Davis of Victoria, Texas on Wednesday.   Against Goble, Grantham hit 14 of 15 greens in regulation, making seven birdies and no bogeys.

“I just went out there and tried to stay focused and make a lot of putts,” Grantham said.  “I feel relaxed out there and that helps a lot.  I focused more on hitting my targets and staying in tune with what I wanted to do.  I gave myself great opportunities by hitting so many greens.  That was a big key.”

In other championship action, incoming freshman Haley Sanders and sophomore Haley Millsap both lost their first round matches and will play in consolation Wednesday.
