Thick humidity returned to the Coastal Carolina atmosphere on Sunday morning. Despite hitting the course early, the boiling temperatures and stagnant air flow challenged the girls to battle through exhaustion with a championship trophy in mind. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In contrast to the bustling bedlam of Saturday\u2019s shotgun start, the lone sound resonating through the air at the start of Sunday\u2019s final round was the sharp ping of drives off the first tee. With 18 holes left to make a push, only the home course of the Coastal Carolina University Women\u2019s Golf team stood between the girls and a chance for the championship. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the final putts dropped into the cup on hole 18, here\u2019s how the leaderboard panned out at the 2019 PKBGT Coastal Carolina Classic!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Bell National <\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> For the second weekend in a row, our Bell National champion finishes the weekend in the red! <\/span><b>Adrian Anderson <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Murrels Inlet, SC 2022) entered the final round tied for first place after posting a one-under-par 71 in the first round. She matched her impressive performance with a second one-under-par 71 in as many days! Anderson finished the tournament with a two-day total score of 71, 71 = 142 (-2), taking home the glass bowl champions trophy in the 21 player Bell National field! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finishing runner-up with a two-day total score of 71, 75 = 146 (+2) was <\/span><b>Napat Rattanaprakarn <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Kenly, NC 2020). Rattanaprakarn entered the final round in a tie with Anderson for first place and kept her scorecard relatively clean in the final round. Two double bogeys were the only hiccups in a final-round 75 (+3) which also included a birdie. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Macie Burcham <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Greensboro, NC 2021) finished the Coastal Carolina Classic in third place after posting a two-day total score of 75, 73 = 148 (+4). Burcham narrowly missed an even-par final round after making the turn at one-under-par on the afternoon. She made two birdies in her Sunday round. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not having to travel far for the weekend, <\/span><b>Mia Gray <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Conway, SC 2023) placed fourth in her hometown with a two-day total score of 75, 74 = 149 (+5). Gray was battling Burcham around the turn, posting an ever-par 36 on the front nine. She made three birdies including two on the back nine to close out her Coastal Carolina Classic performance. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rounding out the top five in the Bell National field was <\/span><b>Lexi Bennett <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Santee, SC 2021) who posted a two-day total score of 75, 75 = 150 (+6) on the weekend. Bennett stayed consistent throughout her tournament, capped off with three birdies on an even-par back nine! <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Futures National <\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Matching Anderson in the Bell National division, <\/span><b>McKenzie Daffin <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Fayetteville, NC 2021) ran away with the championship in the 24 player Futures National field. Daffin finished the tournament in the red, posting back-to-back one-under-par scores of 71! She made three birdies in a row in the front nine of her final round, finishing with a two-day total tournament score of 142.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Locked in a three-way tie for second place were <\/span><b>Hannah Altman <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Lake City, SC 2022), <\/span><b>Madison Messimer <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Myrtle Beach, SC 2025) and <\/span><b>Sophie Lauture <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Raleigh, NC 2024). All three players posted two-day total scores of 152 (+8). <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Messimer made the greatest improvement in the final round, posting an even-par 72 after her first round 80. Altman was one stroke behind, posting a first-round score of 79 followed by a 73 on Sunday. Lauture remained consistent, posting a 77 followed by a 75 in her two rounds. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Closing out the top finishers at the 2019 PKBGT Coastal Carolina Classic was <\/span><b>Paige Paolucci <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Blythewood, SC 2022). Paolucci posted a two-day total score of 79, 76 = 155 (+11). She finished the final round with four birdies! <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Closing Remarks <\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We would like to thank the entire staff at the Hacker Golf Course for their hospitality throughout the weekend in hosting the 2019 PKBGT Coastal Carolina Classic.
