Despite the difficulty of the OB-lined fairways and a windy third round at Winthrop, at least one player managed to score double-digits each day. The final round seemed to be set up for a battle on the lead card as each player had shot a 10-under or better round throughout the weekend.
After setting new records in Round 1, the field broke those records in Round 2 with 223 birdies, 21 under-par scores, and a +0.53 average score, according to StatMando. While Eveliina Salonen and Henna Blomroos played just well enough to stay on top of the leaderboard, Ella Hansen and Holyn Handley shot the two hottest rounds to jump up to the lead card.
Nineteen players finished under par, the best collective round in the short history of the TPWDGC and one of a few records broken as a whole, according to StatMando.
At the top, three Europeans and a 16-year-old lead the way.
