Choe,
the defending Arizona state high school champion, shot a four round
total of 284 March 16 19 at Superstition Mountain Prospector Course
to finish 4 under par.
In making the cut, Choe matched the 36 hole total of Annika Sorenstam,
who is ranked as the world's No. 1 female golfer. Choe had 14 birdies,
six bogeys and two double bogeys overall for the tournament.
She opened the tournament 3 under par with a round of 69. The second
round saw Choe make 17 pars and one birdie to finish 1 under.
Choe shot another under par round on the third day (70), but fell
off on the final day by finishing 2 over par.
In October, Choe helped Cactus Shadows to its second girls golf
championship by shooting a two day total of 125, the lowest in state
tournament history.
The junior missed part of the season because of national commitments.
Choe, the No. 5 ranked junior golfer in the nation during the prep
season, was a member of the victorious U.S. Junior Solheim Cup team. |
