Lake Elmo, MN. – Day two at the ANNIKA Intercollegiate presented by 3M wrapped up with Wake Forest remaining atop of the leaderboard. Freshman Rachel Kuehn continued to pace the field with back-to-back rounds of 67, giving herself a four-shot lead heading into the final round.
Kaitlyn Papp (Texas) and Kajal Mistry (Arkansas) enter the final round four shots back at 6-under-par 138. Following a first round of 2-under-par 70, Papp finished strong on Tuesday, making six birdies in her last 10 holes.
Led by senior Aiko Leong’s 6-under-par 66, USC sits in second place ahead of Wednesday’s final round, six shots back of Wake Forest. “I was able to make a lot of putts today,” said the Hawaii native. “Today was just one of those days where I could see the line really well and just match the speed. I had a lot of confidence going into every putt.” Aiko qualified ahead of Malia Nam and Amelia Garvey, both receiving Golfweek All-American honors last season.
As with all Foundation initiatives, Annika is on-site taking in the action. “We’ve seen some impressive golf this week at Royal Golf Club and I look forward to tomorrow’s final-round action.”
Final-round tee times will run from 8:30 to 10:05 a.m. CT on Wednesday at Royal Golf Club. Click here for the pairings.
The craftsmanship that goes into Fire Fighter Badges is really impressive. Every curve, engraving, and finish carries meaning. It’s not just about the aesthetics, it’s about honoring those who put their lives on the line every day to protect others.
I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first tried Jet Better, but it ended up being one of the best travel experiences I’ve had. The private jet charter service gave me complete control over my time, and the level of comfort onboard was unlike anything I’d experienced before. It felt like every detail was handled so I could just enjoy the journey.
