Former Aledo Ladycats two-time state-champion and current University of Alabama golfer Cheyenne Knight shot a third-round 72 today for a 54-hole total of 2-under par to make the second cut and play on Sunday at the LPGA’s Volunteers of America Texas Shootout at Los Colinas Country Club in Irving.

“The course is actually in soft condition so that always helps to get the ball to stop”, Piller said. These greens are pretty tricky and they have a lot of slope to them so you definitely have to give them respect.

Through 36 holes, she has hit 21 of 26 fairways and a staggering 34 greens (94.4 percent).

Before the weather came in, the Fort Worth resident put on a show in front of the home crowd by posting a bogey-free 65 to climb into the lead.

“I think you’ve just got to go out and play it one shot at a time and whatever happens, happens”, Stuard said. “And the course is in great shape, but as the day got going it got a little bit firmer and you kind of had to adjust your numbers a little bit”.

“Yeah, I was sleeping there”, Ji said of her slow start.

“On the front nine I was just kind of saving pars and just trying to get birdie opportunities and I was able to finish the front nine even par”. I just figured out with the putting speed, yep.

Ji sits at 9-under par for the tournament and is alone in second place just one shot back of the lead. She also recorded back-to-back top-14 finishes at the Kia Classic and ANA Inspiration. So I just asked my parents, ‘Can we move to Texas?’ We love it because there’s two big Korean towns nearby.

None of the afternoon starters was able to finish before darkness suspended play.

“But I had a bogey-free round today, so it was a really simple round”.

“It was just one of those days where it seemed like I was really reading the putts well, and luckily they were going in”, he said.

Ariya Jutanugarn is in fourth at 7 under after shooting 66. However, she remains in contention, unfortunately that can’t be said about Webb. “Not like thinking about in the future too much”.

Piller hit to 4 feet to set up a birdie on the par-4 second, then birdied three straight par 5s — two-putting No. 3 and making a 5-footer on No. 7 and a 10-footer on No. 10.

“I’ve been hitting it really good off the tee and my irons have been pretty spot on”. The 18-year-old Canadian has eight straight top-10 finishes.

“Knowing that I can play with some of the best in the world and compete every week is definitely a confidence booster for me”, Henderson said of her streak. I had two holes left.
