“Annick (Haczkiewicz) was solid today and has a chance to have a good finish,” BYU head coach Carrie Roberts said. “We started off well but needed to minimize our mistakes in the second round.”
Haczkiewicz shot even par (72) in each of the first two rounds Monday to finish tied for ninth place. She recorded a team-high 27 pars on the day and added four birdies.
Naomi Soifua and Kerstin Fotu followed, as each finished the day tied for 21st after shooting scores of 148 (+4) through rounds one and two. Soifua fired a team-high 10 birdies while Fotu posted six.
