Streicher Shoots Bogey-Free 65 Second Round
October 12, 2024 | Women's Golf
North Carolina's Megan Streicher shot a bogey-free 65 Saturday to move into second place with 18 holes to play in the Ruth's Chris Tar Heel Invitational at Finley Golf Club.
The junior from South Africa made five birdies to shoot 5 under par, one shot off the low round of the day, a 64 by Tennessee's Bailey Davis.
Duke's Andie Smith (68-66) has the 36-hole lead at 6-under-par 134. Streicher is second at 4-under 136, Davis is third at 2 under and three players are tied for fourth at 1 under. Those are the only six players in the field of 90 that stand under par after the first two rounds.
Davis' 64 helped the Lady Vols to the best team round of the day, a 2-over 282.
Michigan State (286-283) has the lead heading into Sunday's final round. The Spartans are 9 over, three strokes ahead of Tennessee. Louisville (+14) is third, Wake Forest (+15) is fourth, Duke (+16) is fifth and UNC and Kentucky are tied for sixth at 17 over par.
Saturday's 65 was Streicher's second-best round as a Tar Heel. She is the first Tar Heel to play a bogey-free round since Kayla Smith two years ago at Texas A&M.
Helen Yeung shot 71 and is tied for 19th at 5-over 145. Ing Iadpleum (74), Inez Ng (75) and Reagan Southerland (77) were part of Carolina's 5-over 285, a seven-stroke improvement from the opening round.
The third and final round begins Sunday with a shotgun start at 9:30 a.m.
Admission and parking (in the lots on Finley Golf Course Road near the soccer and lacrosse fields) are free. Shuttles are available for fans to and from the parking lots and clubhouse.
