Near the lead, she double-bogeyed two holes in a row to fall out of contention. Hartlage ran in a long putt on the 17th hole to move into a tie for fourth. She tied for fifth, shooting a 3 under par for the tournament.
Hartlage won two events at U of L and turned pro in August 2021. Her best finish as a pro before Sunday was in the LOTTE Championship with a tie for sixth
