Between Saturday, May 21st, and Sunday, May 22nd, the Peggy Kirk Bell Girls’ Golf Tour played two rounds in the fourth North Carolina Series event at Forest Oaks Country Club in Greensboro, NC.
This weekend’s sunny and breezy weather was the perfect setting for the players to get in two great rounds of golf! Tee times for the first round of the North Carolina Series at Forest Oaks were set to commence at 11:00 AM off of Hole #1 on Saturday, May 21st. The second round’s tee times were to begin at 10:00 AM off of Hole #1 on Sunday, May 22nd. Players arrived at the practice facilities eager to get the round started and potentially take home the trophy.
First place was open for the taking following the first round of play at the former home of the PGA Tour Greater Greensboro Open. Going into Round 2, Morgan Mussatt held the lead at just two-over-par for the Prep Series Division. Camiryn Jackson held the lead after day one for the Futures Series Division firing an opening round of 71 (-1). In the Discovery Series Division, Adelyn Rosado had the lead going into day two with a score of 34 (-2).
After playing well on Saturday, the girls took to the course for Round 2, beaming rays of sunshine and a slightly cooler temperature setting the perfect scene for the final round of the North Carolina Series at Forest Oaks. With no threat of possible bad weather–unlike the day before–players and parents alike were ready to play (or walk) the course!
At the end of the day, three girls stood atop the leaderboards, each the champion of their division in the PKBGT North Carolina Series at Forest Oaks.
