Tattar birdied four of the last five and the final three holes for a 7-under, 1016-rated round. She led in strokes gained tee-to-green at 6.34 on Brewster Ridge.

Ohn Scoggins started strong — 4-for-4 — and battled back from bogies the rest of the way for a 5-under total in solo second place. Rebecca Cox and Henna Blomroos will round out the lead card on Friday at Fox Run Meadows in a tie for third with Hailey King and Silva Saarinen at 4-under.
