Quotables
“It was a solid effort today. We did start off a little bit slow.” Coach Farr-Kaye mentioned. “We had a couple of birdies, but a few too many bogies. We played a much more solid back nine, which was great.”
“I am really happy to see Beth lead us off to play so well,” Coach Farr-Kaye added. “Solid solid efforts all the way around. Patience had a rare off day, so I fully expect to see her back back under par tomorrow. It’s great to get to play in the Phoenix area and we’re looking forward to two more days at the Wigwam.”
