Calgary’s Lee loses in quarterfinal of U.S. women’s amateur golf championship

NASHVILLE — Calgary’s Jaclyn Lee lost to American Kaylee Benton 3 and 2 in their head-to-head quarterfinal matchup on Friday in the US women’s amateur golf championship.

Lee held the lead twice, first getting a birdie on the par-4 No. 1 and again on the par-3 No. 8.
