Overcast weather and light wind opened the doors for good scores at the Dogwood State Junior Girls’ Championship. Emily Mathews of Mebane, N.C. sits at the top of the leaderboard with an opening round of two-under-par, 69.
“I was just playing really solid on the front. I was dropping some 10 footers and hitting it pretty close” said Mathews. “I think for the next two days, I’m gonna focus on every shot individually. I’m not gonna think about where I am in regards to the leaderboard but I think that motivates me to play even better”
Mathews enters round two with a one-shot lead over Megan Morris of Cary, N.C. and Jaclyn Kenzel of Southern Pines, N.C who both navigated Salem Glen at one-under par, 70.
Morris played the front nine bogey free with birdies on Nos. 7 and 9 to make the turn at two-under-par, 34. A few stumbles on the back nine did not stop her as she was able to pick herself up and birdie the No. 17. Her confidence and familiarity of the course assisted in the success of today’s performance.
“I know I like this course. I’ve played here before and I really enjoy it. The front nine was pretty breezy. I kinda got into a flow and kept going” said Morris.
Deborah Spair of Raleigh, N.C. finished round one at even par, 71 to sit in fourth position. Round two begins at 8 a.m. tomorrow.
