Valentine Delon, who just completed her junior season for the Hokies' women's golf team, captured the 2026 Women's Amateur Championship in Scotland after beating Andrea Revuelta in the 36-hole final.

“It’s amazing,” said Delon. “I don't think it feels real right now but it's just the best thing ever. I practiced every day to be in this situation. It was really hard today. The conditions were really hard, but being the Champion and putting my name on this trophy is amazing.''

What a win for Delon on such a big stage at just 21 years old.
