Auburn golf has solid showing in opening round of NCAA Championships
Auburn golf has solid showing in opening round of NCAA Championships Brendan Valdes, Jackson Koivun, and company finished their opening rounds a collective 2-under par at Omni La Costa. The Auburn golf team may not have flashed the dominance it did in the Regional Round of the NCAA Tournament, but the Tigers started their bid for back-to-back NCAA Championships in solid fashion on Friday. Brendan Valdes, Jackson Koivun, and company finished their opening rounds a collective 2-under par at Omni La Costa in Carlsbad, California. The score placed the Tigers within the top five programs on the leaderboard entering the weekend. Valdes (-3) was the best Tiger of the opening round, as the senior from Orlando was a magician with his putter throughout the day, knocking home 5 birdie putts on his way to a team-best 69 scorecard. Jackson Koivun was nearly as impressive, but an unfortunate double bogey on the par-4 No. 15 hole, a hole which Valdes birdied, spoiled an otherwise great round for the sophomore. Fellow sophomore Josiah Gilbert finished with the same score (-1) as Koivun, albeit in much calmer fashion. While the SEC Golfer of the Year's scorecard, specifically on the back nine, lit up like a Christmas tree thanks to 5 birdies, 2 bogeys, and a double bogey, Gilbert simply hum-hoed his way to 15 pars. After an uncharacteristic bogey on the par-5 No. 2 hole, Gilbert finished his round with 2 birdies and 14 pars on his final 16 holes. Freshman Cayden Pope (+5) and redshirt senior Carson Bacha (+3) did not fair nearly as well in their opening rounds. Pope, who was the first Tiger to tee off on Friday, managed just 2 birdies in an attempt to offset 4 bogeys and a double bogey. Bacha, who notoriously starts his tournaments slow, didn't manage a single birdie during his round which featured 15 pars and 3 bogeys. The Tigers collective score of 2-under par put them in a tie for fifth place on the leaderboard with a a pair of other teams. Oklahoma (-8) led the way after day one, while last year's national runner-up Florida State (-3), finished in a tie for second place with Florida and Texas. Arizona State and Illinois finished tied with Auburn at 2-under par. Friday's result put Auburn in prime position to reach Monday's final round of group play, where the top 15 teams on the leaderboard will battle it out for the final eight spots in the Quarterfinal Match Play round on Tuesday.

Nelly Korda, Lydia Ko, Charley Hull eliminated from LPGA's Match Play event in Las Vegas The LPGA is mixing it up this week at the T Mobile Match Play. Held at Shadow Creek Golf Course in Las Vegas, the tournament started Wednesday, which was the first of five days of competition. Match play can be fickle and that proved to be the case as only two of the top 10 seeds ‒ Jeeno Thitikul (2) and Angel Yin (10) ‒ advanced to the Round of 16 after three days of group play. Thitikiul, ranked second in the Rolex Women's World Golf Rankings, is the only top-10 ranked player still alive. Nelly Korda, the defending champion, suffered the first match-play loss of her career. She went 1-1-1 in group play, falling to Ariya Jutanugarn, 1 up, in the final match of Friday's action. Jutanugarn took a 1 up lead when she birdied the par-5 15th while Korda parred it. Both players then parred the last two holes. Big names heading home early at T Mobile Match Play Nelly Korda (1) Lydia Ko (3) Ruoning Yin (4) Ayaka Furue (5) Charley Hull (6) Haeran Ryu (7) Jin Young Ko (8) Hyo Joo Kim (9) The original field of 64 is now down to the Round of 16, with matches set for Saturday morning, followed by the Elite 8 matches Saturday afternoon. Sunday will be the semifinals followed by the championship match. What are the Round of 16 matches at the T Mobile Match Play? 10:20 a.m. ET: Stephanie Kyriacou (37) vs. A Lim Kim (21) 10:30 a.m. ET: Sei Young Kim (29) vs. Lauren Coughlin (13) 10:40 a.m. ET: Brooke Henderson (25) vs. Maja Stark (24) 10:50 a.m. ET: Ariya Jutanugarn (32) vs. Narin An (48) 11 a.m. ET: Ashleigh Buhai (38) vs. Celine Boutier (11) 11:10 a.m. ET: Carlota Ciganda (30) vs. Madelene Sagstrom (46) 11:20 a.m. ET: Mao Saigo (26) vs. Angel Yin (10) 11:30 a.m. ET: Jeeno Thitikul (2) vs. Nataliya Guseva (50) Which notable players failed to advance to the weekend? Aside from eight of the top 10, other notables not moving on include Amy Yang (12), Rose Zhang (15), Yuka Saso (17) and Megan Khang (18). Where is the T Mobile Match Play being played? Shadow Creek Golf Course is a premier layout in Las Vegas. The course, designed by Tom Fazio and opened in 1990, is technically a public-access golf course. It is ranked by Golfweek's Best as the No. 1 public-access course. Shadow Creek has a reported $1,250 green fee, which makes it the highest in the U.S. You also need to stay at an MGM resort to even begin the conversation to score one of the rare tee times, which are limited to just a few groups of resort guests per day, and not every day of the week. Shadow Creek also doesn't publish a seasonal fee schedule. Golfweek's Jason Lusk contribued to this article.

Nelly Korda ousted at LPGA's T-Mobile Match Play as 16 players move on to knockout stage
NORTH LAS VEGAS, Nev. — Nelly Korda, the world's top-ranked player, won't be around this weekend to defend her T-Mobile Match Play championship. She needed to defeat Ariya Jutanugarn, but lost 1-up Friday on the final day of round-robin play and failed to qualify for the round of 16. Korda's struggles typified the week for the world's top 10 players. Eight played in this tournament, but only second-ranked Jeeno Thitikul advanced to the knockout stage. She will play Nataliya Guseva. 'I don't think it's because of the top players not playing well, but I think because it's not a matter of the ranking here,' said Thitikul, who described her approach this week as 'pretty chill.' 'Maybe the top players are playing well, but other players just play a little better, which is like hold the win.' The winners of the 16 groups in round-robin play qualified for the beginning of elimination play Saturday morning. The quarterfinals will be in the afternoon, which will narrow the field to four for Sunday for the semifinals and championship. Korda appeared poised to put herself in that company, taking the lead on the par-3 13th despite missing the green. She got up-and-down and Jutanugarn bogeyed. The advantage didn't last long. The roles reversed on the par-4 15th when Jutanugarn got up and down with a 40-foot putt to within two feet. 'That putt to me is quite hard because of the slope and it's like downhill and it's slope left to right pretty good,' said Jutanugarn, who will face Narin An in the next round. 'I just told myself I just need to get the speed right, and that's all I focus on.' Korda had a similar shot, but delivered an overaggressive chip that went five past the cup and then missed the comebacker. The match was tied, which was the equivalent of a loss for Korda. T-Mobile Match Play: Results, Round of 16 match-ups Then it became an outright loss when she missed another short putt on No. 16 and failed to make up the difference over the final two holes. Korda is still searching for his first victory this season, quite a contrast from a year ago when her victory in the Match Play was her fourth start in a row with a win, the first player in 16 years to accomplish that. She extended the streak to five two weeks later at The Chevron Championship to tie the tour record. Thitikul rolled into the elimination format, defeating Hye-Jin Choi, 5 and 3. Thitikul, who is from Thailand, won all three round-robin matches. She will play Guseva, who advanced out of the same group with Rose Zhang, who has been battling a neck injury. Zhang conceded her match to Meghan Khang a day after doing the same with Albane Valenzuela with three holes left. The decision by Zhang, who lives in Las Vegas, to pull out wound up not affecting that group. Guseva would have advanced anyway, securing the 1-up victory over Valenzuela by making a 55-foot putt on the 18th green. 'I knew that I needed some magic, and that's when I holed that putt,' Guseva said. 'At that moment I thought that I'm going to win this match. I was just fighting until the end. I never gave up.' Brooke Henderson won first two matches in routs and then advanced when her third-round round opponent, Jin Young Ko, conceded after nine holes. Henderson, who was 2-up at the time, said Ko did not feel well. Henderson, who along with Sei Young Kim were the only players who never trailed in a match, will face Maja Stark. Kim will go against Lauren Coughlin. Rounding out the schedule are Stephanie Kyriacou against A Lim Kim, Mao Saigo against Angel Yin, Carlota Ciganda against Madelene Sagstrom ,and Ashleigh Buhai against Celine Boutier.
