Oops…Forgot to attach the T-sheet and link for the leaderboard. Here it is. Jordan’s T-time is 8:50 from #1. May or may not be live. Some of the kids from other countries do not have cell phones and that is how it is kept up to date so the days scores may not all be in until everyone is done.

Today was a very long round of golf that ended after six and a half hours and only 15 completed holes. (Click for the story and pictures and video).

Very slow play compounded by heavy rains and two thunderstorm delays made today’s practice round a marathon for Jordan. Good news is that since she had played yesterday, it was really not a big deal as she got to see the course a second time. Hole number one was a bit hectic and Jordan carded […]

Weather ends the second round on the T box of hole 18. (Click for details and pictures).

Today was certainly a better day for Jordan overall. She shot 5 over on the front 9, and was only 2 over on the back at the end of 17 (+7 for the round) when the thunderstorms rolled in and the claxton sounded to clear the golf course. At the time Jordan was in 13th […]
