Madde Sund Fires Career-Best 68 On Day One At NCAA Regionals
May 08, 2023 | Women's Golf
WESTFIELD, Ind. – Madde Sund fired a career-best 4-under 68 to lead the Oregon State women's golf team in the first round of the NCAA Westfield Regional on Monday.
Â
The Beavers are tied for fourth place after opening the NCAA Regionals with a 2-under 286 at the par-72, 6,300-yard Club at Chatham Hills. Oregon State combined to go 6 under on the last two holes of the day, the par-5, 500-yard 17th and par-4, 354-yard 18th.
Â
The top five teams in the field after Wednesday's final round will advance to the NCAA National Championships, which are scheduled for May 19-24 at Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, Ariz.
Â
Tulsa (9-under 279), Mississippi State (8-under 280) and Michigan (5-under 283) hold down the top three spots. Iowa State is tied for fourth with Oregon State with a 2-under 286. Virginia and Vanderbilt are tied for fifth with a 1-under 287.
Â
The second round of the three-day, 54-hole tournament begins at 5 a.m. PT (8 a.m. ET) on Tuesday and live scoring is available at golfstat.com.
Â
Sund had five birdies and only one bogey to post her best score as a collegian, a 4-under 68, that has her in a tie for second place. Her best previous score was a 1-under 71 in the first round of last year's NCAA Regional in Franklin, Tenn. The five birdies are tied for the third most in the field.
Â
Chayse Gomez had 15 pars and one bogey through the first 16 holes but ended the day with back-to-back birdies to card a 1-under 71 for a tie for 13th place. It's her sixth sub-par score of the season and 14th in her four-year Oregon State career.
Â
Amanda Minni had three birdies and three bogeys to shoot an even-par 72 that has her in a tie for 24th place. This is the first time Minni has competed at the NCAA Regionals in her six years as a Beaver.
Â
Kyra Ly eagled the par-5, 485-yard 13th hole but followed that with a bogey and triple bogey. She responded in a big way with back-to-back birdies on 16 and 17 before finishing the round with a par on 18 to card a 3-over 75. Ly was one of only five golfers in the 66-player field to get an eagle in the first round.
Â
Danique Stokmans finished the first round with a 5-over 77.
Â
Julia Lopez Ramirez of Mississippi State holds the individual lead with a 5-under 67. Hannah Levi of Mississippi State and Lovisa Gunnar of Tulsa are tied with Sund for second with a 4-under 68.
