Stephanie Meadow's solid

start with a 74

Northern Ireland's US-based Stephanie Meadow has made a solid start to this week's top junior tournament in America, the Verizon Junior Heritage 36-hole event over the Sea Pines Resort's Ocean Course and the Harbour Town golf Links, both on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.
Stephanie, pictured, had a 74 over the par-72 Ocean Course. This put her in joint third place, one shot behind Israel's Laetitia Beck, who attends a golf academy in Florida, and defending champion, 14-year-old Alexis Thompson from Florida.
Stephanie, a member at Royal Portrush Golf Club, Co Antrim and named in the GB&I Curtis Cup team short leet for the June match against the Americans at Essex County Club, Massachusetts, is a resident student at the Hank Haney International Junior Golf Academy on Hilton Head Island.
