Bell National<\/h2>\n

Saturday belonged to Kiera Bartholomew<\/b> (Wake Forest, NC 2023). The future Virginia Cavalier played her front-nine bogey-free and in 3-under. She made three more on the back on her way to an opening 67 (-5) giving her a three-shot lead heading into Sunday. Closest to Kiera is\u00a0Elsie MacCleery\u00a0<\/strong>(Crozet, VA 2025). Elsie got hot in the middle of her round Saturday, playing holes 7 through 16 in 5-under par. She ended up finishing the day with a 2-under 70. Joining Elsie and Kiera in the final group tomorrow is Avery McCrery<\/strong>\u00a0<\/b>(Wilmington, DE 2025). The 2022 PKBGT\/NB3 Junior National Champion got off to a low start but played her final eight holes in 1-under and shot even par. The penultimate pairing of Alisa Davidova<\/strong>\u00a0<\/b>(Roanoke, VA 2027), Paris Fieldings\u00a0<\/strong>(Chesapeake, VA 2023), and\u00a0Kathryn Ha\u00a0<\/strong>(Roanoke, VA 2025) are all within striking distance and are looking to put together a low round on Sunday and claim the championship trophy!<\/p>\n

Prep Preview<\/h2>\n

The Prep Preview division is much more tight with 10 players within four of the lead including five within one stroke of the lead!

Kathryn DeLoach\u00a0<\/strong>(Athens, GA 2026) started off hot birdieing her second hole and then holing out for eagle on her fifth hole of the day.

About the PKBGT<\/h2>\n

Founded in 2007 by Girls Golf of America, a non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization, a local girls’ golf tour in the Triad region of North Carolina.\u00a0 The tour began as a simple concept: create more effective competitive playing opportunities for girls. By utilizing innovative yardage-based divisions instead of the traditional age-based format, the tour focused on developing tournament experience at the player’s pace. The 2020-2021 season will feature over 110 tournaments in 9 states on the East Coast, and with over 1,000 members, the PKBGT is the largest girl’s only tour in the country.\u00a0 Learn more about the PKBGT at http:\/\/www.pkbgt.org\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n
