NEW ORLEANS – The Oregon women's golf team finished round one of the Allstate Sugar Bowl tied for 10th place at 9-over par on Sunday at the English Turn Golf and Country Club.
How it Happened: The Ducks shot a 9-over 297 in the first round of the Allstate Sugar Bowl. Oregon is tied for 10th place with 36 holes to play, while Florida leads the field after starting the tournament at 5-under 283.
Junior Kathleen Scavo lead the way for the Ducks during the first round, shooting even par. Scavo carded five birdies throughout the day, and is currently tied for 16th on the individual leaderboard.
Sophomore Amy Matsuoka also had a solid day on the course. Like Scavo, Matsuoka had five birdies, but also carded a double-bogey on the back nine to put her at 1 over after round one. Matsuoka only sits a few spots behind Scavo on the individual leaderboard at T20.
Both freshman Alexis Phadungmartvorakul and junior Petra Salko finished round one at 4 over and tied for 46th on the individual leaderboard. Phadungmartvorakul carded two birdies while Salko carded one.
Freshman Madi Daniel had a solid start, recording an eagle on her second hole of the day, but after carding two double-bogeys, Daniel finished the first day at 6 over.
Quotable:
Laura Cilek, Associate Head Coach
On how the team handled the course...
"We were very pleased with the way they all finished strong today. There are some holes out there where you have to be disciplined with your course management. It's something we have been working on, so we were glad to see some good decisions made."
Ria Scott, Head Coach
On the team's mindset going into round two...
"Everyone has a great mindset headed into tomorrow. They see that they are only five shots back of third, and are optimistic. Everyone has something they can do a little bit better tomorrow - and it's all things that they can control. Controllable and achievable."
Up Next: The Ducks are paired with Clemson and LSU for round two of the Allstate Sugar Bowl and will tee off at 7 a.m. PT on Monday.
