Round 1 Recap

Daniela "Crash" Lendl of Bradenton, FL (2011) opened the Feather Sound Open with a round of 73 which gives her a 2 strokes advantage over

Victoria Kiser of Orlando, FL (2010). Daniela, who won the La Costa Classic in February, will be looking for her second win of the season when she tees it up on Sunday. She faces formidable competition in Miss Kiser, one of only two young ladies to accumulate 3 wins so far this season. Miss Kiser who won the first event she played this season would like to win her last regular season event as well. She will not only have to contend with Daniela, she will need to be aware of 15 year old Monifa Sealy of TRINIDAD and TOBAGO (2011), who won earlier this season at The Legends at Orange Lake and will start Sunday's round just one stroke back of Miss Kiser in 3rd place. Michele Nash of Indianapolis, IN (2008) and Susana Benavides of Cochabamba, BOLIVIA (2009) will begin the final round tied for 4th at 79, 6 strokes back of Miss Lendl.

In the Girls 14 and under division, Regan Simeone of Milton, MA (2011) is leading by 3 strokes after an opening round of 81. Regan led this division in pars with 12 for Round One. Nine year old Nelly Korda of Bradenton, FL (2016) will start in second place on Sunday. Miss Korda won the Bobcat Trail Open in December. Samantha Wagner of Easton, PA (2015) will start in 3rd place, just one stroke back of Miss Korda. Stephanie Liu of St. Albans, MO (2015) is only one stroke back of Miss Wagner, so a lot can happen on Sunday. Sofia Molinaro of Torino, ITALY (2012), along with Miss Korda and Miss Wagner all carded a birdie on Saturday.

Lee Castelo of Orlando, FL (2009) fired an opening round of 2 under par on Saturday at the Feather Sound Open. Castelo made 4 birdies on his way around the golf course and will start Sunday's final round with a one shot lead over

Brandon, who led this division in birdies with 5, has a 2 stroke advantage over 15 year old
