First Round:

  • It was a tale of two nines for the Kentucky women’s golf team Tuesday, who, after starting on hole No. 10, spent much of the back nine in the bottom half of the leaderboard. After making the turn, however, UK began to climb up the leaderboard, which came to a pinnacle around hole No. 4, when UK added seven birdies to its scorecard between then and the final hole.
  • Kentucky is in fourth place on a 3-over (291), just one shot behind No. 1 Wake Forest (3rd, 290), three shots behind No. 19 Alabama (2nd, 288) and five shots behind No. 6 Duke (1st, 286).
    • UK is sitting ahead of three teams ranked higher than it in the polls, including No. 2 Auburn, No. 7 South Carolina and No. 17 Florida State.
  • Cathryn Brown, a senior from Eddyville, Kentucky, carded her eighth round of par-or-better through nine rounds this season. She paced the team on a 2-under (70) to sit in a share of fifth place.
    • She is just two shots behind co-leaders Marie Madsen (NC State) and Rianne Malixi (Duke).
    • She had a team-lead six birdies, including three – and going 3-under – in her final five holes of the first round.
  • Two Cats are in the top 10 (also C.A. Carter), while three players are in the top 20 (also Isabella Johnson).
  • C.A. Carter, a junior from Lexington, Kentucky, had her sixth round of par-or-better through nine rounds this season. She went even-par (72) to find T10.
    • Isabella Johnson, a junior from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, is just one shot behind her at 1-over (73).
