Teeing off in an event that could put
her back atop the number one spot
in the world with a victory.
That kind of says it all, doesn't it?
Yeah, I think I think that says so.
Alright, that'll be for par.
Great, well, that was hard
earned and well earned.
That is textbook there.
She started just on the right edge of
that far bunker with a slight fade.
She's gonna be happy with that one.
So the wind is into and off the
left at the moment.
Doreen, is that right?
It's gonna be hard to get to this
whole location with the wind off
the left at being tough on the left.
This is headed to the right side of the green.
It's like it's gonna miss
the green to the right.
Gino does not have driver,
but that's smart play.
She took that bunker out of
play on the left there.
I don't know the benefit of it.
I don't think there's anything
wrong with doing it as long as
you can grip down in the club and
you know not lose five or six yards.
Although if I lost it a little to the right.
She's down green down now.
She'll be mindful about speed.
As you can tell by her speed.
She's a little a little
different from what she should be.
She knows T shot 150 today.
It's the same as Millie's headed out to
the right using that wind curve advantage.
Little short windshield by her wife.
She is hit at the right edge of
green trying to use that slope.
I think that's a great angle to come in from.
Using a lot of the green to work with.
Bring it up a little bit and
taking a little higher softer
to get max spin.
Not as a well judged.
Shot there and as you can see,
she's playing out to the right,
even though she's 20 yards off the green,
just to dip it.
Looked great the whole way.
It's a little frustrating.
I know it's a player.
Try to have a strategy on a whole.
We've got on this part three
playing 159 yards today.
See what Gina did.
The coon has here for birdie long
look from the back of the green.
It is with movement to the right,
but this ball is rolling really well.
Like it's just hugging the green.
Oh come on.
Just leave them all at 60 feet.
Nice birdie for Gino back to back birdies
in a good way to bounce back at
the 8th on the tee of the night.
She's lost on a little right.
She she's looking probably.
10 paces left of this pen to
utilize that slope that you
would just be referencing.
And that was beautifully done.
So she flirted with that right side off the
tee, but now Judy a chance today.
A third straight birdie.
She gets the 10 footer to drop as well.
To add another 10 feet one inches to her.
Total putts made and she's the first player.
Here in this morning, wave up the 70.
Wind is right off her left or her right.
Sending him gap wedge.
Angela, she just played them
thinking about that.
Lydia is probably airing closer to
finishing left of that bunker,
but I bet Gino and Nellie their line.
That wind's gotta be right to left.
They gotta be looking at the
left side of the screen and just.
Just driving it, yeah.
Not like that looks very good.
8 to have major championship
golf in Texas, isn't it?
Ange? It's awesome.
I love it.
Of course you've got the Chevron
championship now every year down
at the club at Carlton Woods.
Here's Gino Titicun at 11.
With this one from 23 plus 140 feet of putts.
Great putting the Greens are perfect.
Driver here is hoping to get a good
one down the fairway in a good.
A swing and moving right and she has
had a beautiful one down the left side.
And I have to get all of this.
She is absolutely feeling it.
Gino Titicun to three under.
She has missed a couple, right?
Not there. Perfect, I would tell you the VAT.
It doesn't look happy.
You can't say Chris.
Sometimes you just didn't like the swing you.
Hit this pretty hard as well
as contend with the green.
And wow, she is just on with that putter.
I mean, it's from her view,
it's gotta look like they're
all about to go in.
Tap in. This won't add a lot to her.
Total feet of putts made.
But just to dial the speed
in from off the green.
She's now at wait to see how
these women play this golf.
Tinker Green Gino has opted to hit wood.
But that is straight into the penalty area.
I don't even think it crossed the fairway.
Tee shot. Here's your second.
Yeah, she's 96 yards.
From the best in the penalty area,
but it came out really nicely.
Kay Cockrell and her husband Danny.
He's a longtime member and
there is one of those.
We'll say relatively stressed
124 to your point.
Well, there you go easy.
Whole locations a good one today too.
Over there, it feels like it's
out there in the middle of nowhere.
Did it go now? Are you kidding me?
It's another part that goes in for Gino.
We're inching towards nearly
200 feet of made putts today.
That is incredible.
Take this left of that bunker.
It is a three wood.
I could be wrong by a club.
I think that is the 8 judging by her grip.
She has different colors.
For each club so that her folks back
watching in Thailand can know what
club she's hitting, but we'll see.
Three times fast she has made
putts like this for Birdie.
From 73 feet away, come on no way.
What a day for Gina 8 of 14 fairways.
And that 2 foot 2 inch putt.
