The sun is slowly rising over Wildwood Park in Appling, Georgia, home to the International Disc Golf Center, where 45 ladies are preparing for the final day of the Third Annual Magnolia Open. Despite a chilly start, the clear skies and gentle breeze promise a beautiful day ahead for these talented competitors.
As the women warm up with coffee, muffins, and some light stretching, their focus is firmly on the task at hand: to emerge victorious from this prestigious tournament. Yesterday's rounds saw some thrilling performances, with Sarah Stanhope shooting an impressive 62 in Round 1 to take the lead in the FPO division. However, Elaine King closed the gap significantly in Round 2, leaving a mere single throw separating them going into the final round.
In the Advanced Amateur division, Tabatha Simon holds a five-throw advantage over Casey Schoonover, while Debbie Scott trails by two throws in third place. Heidi Schaffner and Candy Rogue are tied for first in the Advanced Masters division at +13, with Donna Griest trailing closely behind in third place.
