NEW ORLEANS, La. – The No. 11 Florida women's golf team will look to stay on top of the field during Tuesday's final round of the Allstate Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, La. The Gators' second-round score of 281 matched the third-lowest round in program history.
Four Gators recorded under-par scores to propel the Orange and Blue to front of the team standings with a 36-hole total of 569, a season-best mark. Junior Kelly Grassel recorded four birdies in the second round on her way to a season-best 69, while junior Karolina Vlckova used three birdies on the back nine to card 2-under (70). Grassel is tied for 18th, while Vlckova moved into the top 10 and is tied for seventh.
Junior Maria Torres scored her second-straight under-par round of the tournament with a -1 (71), and she is third in the individual standings. Sophomore Taylor Tomlinson played steady to card 1-under par in Round 2, and is tied for 12th.
The Gators hold a seven-stroke lead over the 17-team field and second place No. 13 Oklahoma State, at the par-72, 6,239-yard English Turn Golf Club. Lauren Kim from Stanford is on top of the individual leaderboard at -6 (138).
Head Coach Emily Glaser:
On the Gators' season-best round:
"I'm happy with the day. Overall, I thought we were really solid out there. I'm probably the most pleased with how we stuck to our strategy, and played smart golf. It really helped us when the wind started to blow, that's when we picked up the most shots on the field."
On the plan for the final round:
"Tomorrow, we will go out and focus on ourselves, not the field, and try to win the day. I'm excited for the opportunity we have in front of us."
