ROSEANNE AND JODI IN TOP
TEN OF COLLEGE EVENT
IN WASHINGTON STATE
Perthshire teenager Roseanne Niven, a second-year student at the University of California Berkeley, has had her best round so far to be lying joint fifth in a quality field of 82 at the end of the opening day of the Edean Ihlanfeldt Invitational women's college tournament over the Sahalee Golf & Country Club course at Sammamish, Washington State.
Roseanne returned (pictured right) a one-over-par 73 over the 6,127yd course, birdieing the second, ninth and 13th and dropping shots at the eighth, 12th, 14th and 17th in halves of 35 (one under par) and 38 (two over par).
A member at Crieff Golf Club and Scottish Under-18 girls' match-play champion last year, Roseanne is three shots behind the joint leaders, Spain's Belen Mozo (Southern California University) and Sweden's Anna Nordqvist (Arizona State). Belen won both the British women's and girls' open titles last year while Anna, a former British girls' champion, has been beaten finalist in the British women's championship this year and last.
Also in the top 10 with two rounds to go is English women's stroke-play champion Jodi Ewart (New Mexico University) from Catterick. Jodi is in joint eighth positon after a 74. Starting at the 10th, the Yorkshire girl birdied the 15th to be one under par for her first nine holes but she bogeyed the first and then had a double-bogey 7 at the long second.
She then birdied the fourth but dropped further shots at the fifth and seventh to take four-over-par 40 shots for her second nine.
