Blue Devils Slip to Fifth at Sugar Bowl With 18 Holes Left
2/28/2011 10:03:00 PM | Women's Golf
NEW ORLEANS, La. - After opening day one of the Allstate Sugar Bowl Intercollegiate Golf Championship on Sunday with a 290, the fifth-ranked Duke women's golf team slipped back to fifth place and seven shots off the lead with one round to play at the 6,105-yard, par 72 English Turn Golf and Country Club.
Duke carded an 11-over-par, 299, on Monday and owns a 36-hole total of 589 with 18 holes remaining. Alabama moved into first place with a 582, while Southern California (586), Tulane (586), Texas A&M (588), Duke (589), Virginia (590), Vanderbilt (591), Arizona State (592), Purdue (593) and LSU (593) rounding out the top 10.
“We are still in position to win this tournament,” said Duke Head Coach Dan Brooks. “I don't think our golf was that different today, we just didn't have a low number in there. A few things were not going quite as well, but we didn't have any kind of disastrous day. We had the same kind of conditions -- the wind was blowing the entire day. The ball just didn't bounce our way quite as well as it did yesterday. There was some good things done today.”
Blue Devil freshman Laetitia Beck didn't have the putts drop like she did on Sunday when she carded a career-best six-under-par, 66. A product of Caesarea, Israel, Beck totaled 35 putts on Monday compared to 28 putts the day before. She had only one birdie in the second round on hole No. 14, but had six on day one, along with an eagle on the sixth hole. Beck has hit 29-of-36 greens the first two rounds and enters the final day tied for fourth with a 142.
Leading the individual action is Stephanie Meadow of Alabama with a six-under-par, 138, while Megan McChrystal of LSU is second (139), Susy Grunden is third (141) and Maribel Lopez Porras of Tulane is tied with Beck at 142.
Sophomore Lindy Duncan turned in an even-par, 72, on Monday and is now tied for 12th with a two-day total of 145. Duncan, who is out of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., registered four birdies in the second round, including three on par fives. She also totaled 28 putts, hit nine greens and 11 fairways.
After turning in a 75 on day two, freshman Alejandra Cangrejo is tied for 47th with a 151. She opened the morning with a birdie on the first hole but totaled four bogeys and the rest pars the rest of the day.
Senior Kim Donovan scrambled for four up-and-downs the last four holes as she closed the day with a 76. She is tied for 73rd with a 156. Sophomore Stacey Kim had a 79 on Monday and is tied for 62nd with a 154. Playing as an individual, sophomore Courtney Ellenbogen is tied for 80th with a 158.
“We have learned a little bit every day and that is what you have to do because it is a good golf course with very small greens,” commented Brooks. “You just have to learn all you can as you go along so you know where to hit the ball next time you play the hole. Every green is unique -- it is truly a great course.”
Duke will tee off on Tuesday beginning at 9:15 a.m., with a shotgun start. Live scoring will be available for the remaining two days at www.golfstat.com.
