On Monday, July 15, the 2013 Peggy Kirk Bell Girls’ Golf Tour plays the One-Day Open Series at Sapona Ridge Country Club. Sapona is a classic course for sixth one-day tournament of the 2013 season. One-day tournaments are designed for golfers of all skill levels, but are a great place for development golfers to “get in to the swing of things” playing tournament golf. The goal of One-Day Open Series events is to provide a fun and friendly tournament on a premium golf course. The event features a field of 31 players.
In the Bell Division, the field features 8 golfers, highlighted by some of the top players on the 2013 PKBGT Order of Merit list, including: Kendall Dobbins (Summerfield, NC 2016), Joliana Elias (Jamestown, NC 2015), and Grace Yatawara (Salisbury, NC 2016).
In the Futures Division, the field features 23 golfers, highlighted by some of the top players on the 2013 PKBGT Order of Merit lists, including: Moon Cheong (Charlotte, NC 2017), Elizabeth Nguyen (Pinehurst, NC 2017), and Tessa Young (Cornelius, NC 2014).
The PKBGT would like welcome Leisa Jayde Dudley (Roanoke, VA 2019), Emily Hawkins (Lexington, NC 2018), Katy Kneisel (Winston-Salem, NC 2015), Alexis Lewis (Summerfield, NC 2015), Abby Parsons (Pinehurst, NC 2016), and Brianna Williams (Troutman, NC 2013) who will be playing their first PKB event this season.
The One-Day Open Series @ Sapona Ridge CC brings together players from across North Carolina. Weather for Monday looks sunny with temperatures in the 80s with a chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon. Despite the chance of inclement weather, it should be a great day for the sixth One-Day Open Series of the season!
