The 43 tournament participants will compete on the Lakes course for both days of the event. The highest performing PKB Performance Index player in each division head into the final round with the lead.

Kara Carter (Kingsport, TN 2021) heads into tomorrow’s final round with a three-shot lead after her four birdies in round one. The Xavier University women’s golf commit concluded with a round of 70 (-2). Kara has played very well at the Lakes Course, finishing tied for second back in 2018. Carter’s last victory on the PKB Girls Tour circuit came in 2018 at Columbia Country Club. The Lydic sisters hope to catch Carter in tomorrow’s round but will need to make up three shots before the final drops on the 18th hole. Sarah Lydic (Ocean View, DE 2022) and Hannah Lydic (Ocean View, DE 2024) both shot (+1) rounds of 73.
