Team leader: Stanford
Individual leader: Rose Zhang, Stanford; Sadie Englemann, Stanford
The hook: Well well, looks who’s at the top of the leaderboard. If you were surprised to see Stanford, don’t be. Although the Cardinal miss Rachel Heck, it remains the defending national champion and has the best women’s golfer in the world sporting the logo. Check out 10th-seeded Sacramento State, inside the cut line after the opening 18 holes.
If the cut were today: 1. Stanford; 2. USC; 3. Texas Tech; 4. Sacramento State; T-5. Houston, Baylor (playoff)
What to watch for Tuesday: Look for Stanford and USC to continue battling it out for the top spot, but Kentucky, which sits five shots back of the cut, should make a push.
At 21-under, the Cardinal registered its second-best 18-hole team score in program history today to open the Pullman Regional!
