Carson McKie of Hoover, rising sophomore golfer at Lee University, finished Round 1 with a two-over par 74. Braving the rainy weather and lightning delay, McKie had a strong finish with a one-stroke lead over Chloe Borders of Jacksonville and Sophie Burks of Tallassee.
Linda Jeffery of Prattville fired a three-under par 69 to take a 10-shot lead over Chris Spivey of Pell City after the first round in the Tournament Division.
54 holes of gross individual stroke play. The lowest score for 54 holes in the Championship Division will be the Champion. In the event of a tie for the Championship, a hole-by-hole play-off will be held immediately following play.
Entries are open to any female amateur golfer who is a legal resident of Alabama and has an active GHIN® USGA Handicap Index® at an AGA member club.
