by Yana Wilson, bored an iron to 4 through the wind to make a hole in one in the third hole per-3 at the Atlantic Beach Country Club Thursday and led by a shot in the first round of the Tour Atlantic Beach Classic, at a peer of 2 to 15 holes when the darkness interrupted the game.
Wilson, 18, who bypassed the university golf course after a successful junior career, made the AS at 163 yards, but estimated that the hole played more like 190 through gusts of wind estimated at 35 mi / h.
“I hit the blow and said to myself:” Okay. It’s not in the water, there is no green, “the club has turned, picked up the tee and left the Tee box,” Wilson told Epsontour.com. “I hear everyone to celebrate, and I say to myself:” Oh, I guess it has entered. It’s so cool. »»
Wilson must come back with one or the other of the other players to finish their first round at 7:30 am
The leaders of the clubhouse are the former player of the University of Virginia, Riley Smith, the winner last week during the opening event of the Epson tour, the Florida central championship, and Bi Shin of Korea, who posted 1 under 70 scores. Laetitia Beck, from Israel 33 years old, who has the first seven career in the LPGA tour, and Yurika Tanida, Japan, is equal to 71 peer.
“He played so hard there today, so trying to stay patient in the wind,” said Smith. “I just set up a good solid round. I knew that something under the peer or around the peer was going to be a very good score to start this week, so it feels good to do it.”
In addition to the five players who have finished or are peer or better, 36 players failed to break 80.
