BRYAN, Texas (AP) — Tennessee’s Erica Popson brings a four-tournament winning streak into the NCAA women’s golf championship.

Popson is the first NCAA Division I golfer to win four tournaments in a row since Lorena Ochoa captured seven straight from 2001-02.

The sophomore hopes to continue her winning streak that began in March. She will lead the Volunteers in the 24-team tournament that starts Wednesday.

Tennessee coach Judi Pavon says dealing with a thumb injury that has lingered since she joined the team has helped Popson “grow up.”
