Pac 12 championship round 1 is in the books. Stanford is in 3rd, 8 shots back of USC. USC shot -14(!!) on the back 9.

Rose Zhang is doing Rose Zhang things. She shot a bogey-free round of 67 (-5) and leads the individual competition. She needed help from her teammates, but Sadie Englemann and Megha Ganne both struggled. Englemann bogeyed 4 of the first 5 holes to dig a hole. Then bogeyed both par 5s on the back 9. She finished at 76 (+4). Ganne's 74 (+2) included 16 pars, 1 birdie and a triple bogey on the 14th hole. It was the only triple bogey by any player on any team. Kelly Xu bogeyed 3 of her final 4 holes to finish at 74 (+2). Angelina Ye was solid in the 5th position with an even par round of 72.

Without Seay and Hecht we aren't the team we thought we would be last year.  Getting to match play will itself be a challenge.    Ganne doesn't seem to be playing up to her billing, and there is no consistency with the rest.  Simply not enough red numbers. Wasn't that many days ago that the NCAA's looked like a lock. Alright, not a lock, but the odds on favorite.
