Corpuz 71 Leads No. 1 USC's First Round At ASU/Ping
March 29, 2019 | Women's Golf, Features
USC six back after 18 holes in Phoenix.
Junior Allisen Corpuz fired a 1-under 69 and sophomore Jennifer Chang churned out a par round to lead the top-ranked USC women's golf team during the first round of the PING/ASU Invitational at the Papago G.C. in Phoenix, Ariz., on Friday (March 29).
The Trojans, coming off of their recent fourth win, held the lead briefly midway through the opening round before finishing at 5-over 293, tied for fifth and six back of first-place Stanford. Host Arizona State is second, one back of the Cardinal.
Corpuz's fine round didn't go toward USC's team total unfortunately as she's playing individually this week. It was her best round since a 69 at the Northrop Grumman Regional Challenge on Feb. 4. Corpuz, with five birdies today, is tied for seventh, four back.
Chang is tied for 15th after her even round, her fourth straight round of par or better and sixth in the last eight. Her second birdie today on 15 evened her day.
Freshman Malia Nam is tied for 22nd after a 1-over 73. She was 2-under through 13 holes before a couple late bobbles. Sophomores Alyaa Abdulghany and Amelia Garvey are tied for 30th at 2-over 74 while sophomore Gabriela Ruffels is tied for 51st at 4-over 76.
USC will tee off tomorrow starting at 8:45 a.m., paired with Oregon and Furman.
