The first 18 holes of the Qualifying Stage of LPGA Q-Series has come to a close, with the field of 194 players battling through unusual windy conditions in the Sunshine State. The current number to reach to be inside the top 35 after 18 holes of play is 1-under, with notable names such as Matilda Castren, Ilhee Lee, Christina Kim and Kelly Tan all on the outside looking in.
Roberta Liti leads the way early at Qualifying, carding a bogey-free, 6-under 66 on the Bobcat Course at Plantation Golf and Country Club. Liti went on a tear as she made the turn, rolling in back-to-back birdies on 17 and 18 to move to 3-under on the round before heading to her second nine. She started her last nine holes with three pars before adding three more circles to her scorecard to ultimately post at 6-under and lead the rest of the field by one shot.
