HANAHAN, S.C. – Annelie Weimenhog carded an opening round 75 as UNC Greensboro’s best score in the first day of action at the Cougar Classic at Yeamans Hall GC.
Starting on No. 10, Weimenhog, a junior from Kattarp, Sweden, played her first 9 – the back side of the course – in an even 36, despite a double-bogues on No. 17. She offset that with three birdies in her first nine holes. She then played the front 9 in 39 to close out her round of 75.
The Spartans are in 21st place after the first round, carding a team total of 315. Virginia and Georgia are tied for the lead at 288, followed by South Carolina at 290. Georgia’s Mallory Hetzel and Virginia’s Whitney Neuhauser are tied for the individual lead after opening round scores of 68.
