2019 Glass Blown Open: FPO Round 1 Recap
Catch up on the action from the 2019 Glass Blown Open, where Katrina Allen and Jessica Weese took to the course in the FPO division. The competition was fierce, but Katrina's hot start set her apart - until a sluggish pace of play led to some costly mistakes. She bounced back with a birdie conversion on hole 11 and continued to play well, including a clutch putt on 18 to secure a spot at the top of the leaderboard. But Jessica Weese wasn't far behind. After shaking off an early round rust, she found her footing, sinking three birdies in succession and staying consistent throughout the round. Her impressive c1x putting earned her top honors, as did her fairway hits, which placed her among the top five. The 2019 Glass Blown Open was full of surprises, but these two talented players made it a day to remember.
