Thanks for the report - please keep them coming through the weekend...😎
The ACC Women's Golf Tournament is being played at Pawley's Island, South Carolina.
After two rounds the Duke women have a nine-shot lead over Clemson, FSU and UNC. Leona Maguire is tied for the individual lead at -4. Three other Duke golfers are tied for seventh at even par: Virginia Elena Carta, freshman Ana Belac and Sandy Choi. Gurbani Singh is at +1, as the entire Duke contingent is playing well.
Go Duke!

Most consistent program in Duke Sports. Dan Brooks runs an unbelievably great program. I think Leona Maguire will some day rival Brittany Lang's success on the LPGA tour.
Golf at Duke goes back to long time pro Dumpy Hacker and then Rod Anderson, both of whom have passed on.
Is this a fifty four hole chapionship?

Wow! I hate to report this but FSU (fourth-ranked nationally) has made up all nine strokes from the start of play, and the match is tied. Duke is on holes 9-11; Florida State is on holes 12-16.
Go Duke!

Looking like Duke is ahead by 9 now with Florida State in at +4 for the tournament, +1 for the day and Duke on the last two holes at -5, also +1 for the day. http://www.golfstatresults.com/publi...team&tid=10918
Leona Maguire has a 2 stroke lead for individual champion at -6 on 17.
I need some advice.
I was watching the ESPN3/ACC Network Extra livestream of the ACC Women's Golf Tournament on my desktop computer, and I noticed the UNC team broke a rule. Apparently they had been taking fake classes for about 20 years. Should I send an e-mail to John Skipper and John Swofford and remind them that this violation should result in a 89,635,064-stroke penalty?

Results?

Win by 9 over Florida state.
Another victory and on to the NCAA Tourney!! Amazing what Dan's accomplished over the years. Many of you know Ron Schmid, who was the women's coach when I was in school until Dan took over. Ron became the Director of the Iron Dukes, then President of the Carolinas PGA and has now been inducted into their HOF (unless somehow I'm having a major brain-fart). I've played several rounds with both. Have played with Ron and current ID guru (Jack Winters) at Myrtle Beach on a fund-raiser a long, long time ago. Regardless, our golf programs (both) are in great hands!! Tom Butters was a visionary back in the day, no doubt.
GO DUKE!!
