Angela Stanford was waving long before she got to the 18th green, taking in the claps and whistles from the gathered fans while she strolled down the fairway. Stanford lives just 60 miles from Old American Golf Club in Fort Worth and captured last year’s Volunteers of America Classic title with just a few of her native Texans surrounding the green. This year, the 21-year LPGA Tour veteran heads to the final round at -9 overall, just five strokes off the lead, and is basking in the opportunity to defend her title in front of a rowdy group of family, friends and fans.
