RIO GRANDE, P.R. --- Marta Silva Zamora and Emilie Burger finished second and fourth, respectively, in the individual field to lead the No. 10-ranked Georgia women's golf team to fourth place at the Lady Puerto Rico Classic on Tuesday.

The Bulldogs carded a 301 at Trump National Golf Club, their highest tally of the 54-hole event, and fell two spots on the team leaderboard. No. 9 Alabama closed with a 290 to finish at 872 and earn an 11-shot victory. No. 4 Purdue was second at 883, followed by No. 22 Oklahoma State at 886, the Bulldogs at 888, Kent State at 897, Northwestern, Florida State and Baylor all at 907, Texas Tech at 908 and Wisconsin at 922.

Burger's 1-under 71 led Georgia on Tuesday, with the Bulldogs also counting a 73 from Silva Zamora, a 74 from Kendall Wright and an 83, the score posted by both Carolina Andrade and Tess Fordham.

"We were one good score away from finishing higher," head coach Kelley Hester said. "Emilie played really well. She continues to come on. Marta was solid. I was proud of the way Kendall fought back today. Caro struggled with her putter and Tess was 2-under through four but couldn't keep it going."

Overall, Silva Zamora finished at 4-under 212, three shots back of medalist Caroline Hedwall of Oklahoma State. Burger wrapped up at 3-under 213. Both Bulldogs earned their third top-10 individual finish in six events played during the 2009-10 season.

In addition, Wright tied for 35th at 230, Andrade tied for 57th at 236 and Fordham placed 68th at 240. Georgia's Kiara Hayashida, who competed as an individual in the tournament, shot 81 on Tuesday and finished 80th at 250.

"We have some things to work on, which is exactly what you would expect this time of the season," Hester said. "We'll get back to Athens and concentrate on those things and get better prepared for our next time out."

The Bulldogs will return to action on March 1 when they travel to Valdosta, Ga., to compete in the Kinderlou Forest Challenge.
