Play Suspended Partway Through Round Two at Briar’s Creek Invitational
3/14/2022 7:35:00 PM | Women's Golf
Johns Island, S.C. – After the shotgun start was delayed 30 minutes because of frost, the University of Minnesota women's golf team played all of round one and part of round two on Monday. With two holes left to play in the round, the Gophers are six-over par in the second round. The last two holes will be played Tuesday morning before round three begins.
Senior Geraldine Wong and junior Grace Curran were at the top of the Gophers' leaderboard at the end of the first round, with scores of even-par (72) and one-over par (73) respectively.
The Maroon and Gold finished the first round at ten-over par (298). That placed them in a tie for eighth place after 18 holes.
Quotable
"With a quick turnaround from Augusta we got off to a great start through our first 9 holes." Head coach Rhyll Brinsmead said. "We made some sloppy mistakes at the turn and turned in a 298 (+10). After a frost delay we were able to play 34 of 36 holes today and currently sit in 10th place. I'm really proud of how the team bounced back and look forward to our best round tomorrow."
Notable
Wong had three birdies in the first round, which tied a team-high for the round. Her round one score of 72 placed her in a tie for 12th at the completion of the round.
Along with a final round score of 73, Curran had two birdies in the first round. She finished in a tie for 18th after 18 holes.
Junior Leah Herzog also had three birdies in the first round, and finished with a score of three-over par (75). That score put her in a tie for 39th place after round one.
Senior Joanne Free finished in a tie for 74th place after a two-birdie round one. She finished with a score of six-over par (78) after 18 holes.
Rounding out the Gophers' lineup was Emma Carpenter, who finished the round with a score of 11-over par (83), placing her in a tie for 94th place.
