Florida State’s Mirabel Ting, who began play in the Augusta National Women’s Amateur on Wednesday, was named the ACC Co-Player of the Month of March by the Atlantic Coast Conference Office. The Seminole sophomore won the individual championship of the Valspar Augusta Invitational, finished sixth at the Florida State Match Up, and totaled a 2-1 record at the Old Barnwell Match Up Derby in March.
It’s the first time Ting has earned ACC Golfer of the Month award in just her first semester playing for the Seminoles.
Ting was a total of 12 strokes under par in the Valspar (-7) and the Match Up (-5) and defeated both Andie Smith of Duke (3&1) and Izzy Pellot of Mississippi State (2Up) at the Old Barnwell Derby as she enjoyed a spectacular month of March. She led the Seminoles to a pair of top-five team finishes – second at the Match Up and fifth at the Valspar.
Ting has earned four consecutive top-seven finishes in her first four events as a Seminole – first at the Valspar, tied for sixth at the Match Up and seventh place finishes at the spring season-opening Guadalajara Country Club Collegiate Invitational and the Seventh Annual Moon Invitational. She is a total of 10 strokes under par, was Florida State’s leader at the Moon and Valspar Invitationals, and has finished among the Seminoles’ top two finishers in each of her first four events at Florida State.
“It has been a good spring for Mirabel and all of our girls,” said Seminole Head Coach Amy Bond from the Champions Retreat at Augusta where she is supporting Florida State’s three players in the ANWA (Ting, Charlotte Heath, and Lottie Woad). “A big congratulations to Mirabel on being named the ACC Co-Golfer of the Month of March. She played a lot of really good golf to be considered for the award, and we are happy that her hard work is paying off this season.”
Ting is ranked second on the team with a 71.17 stroke average in 12 rounds during four events this season. She has totaled 10 of 12 rounds scored at par or better and 11 of 12 rounds scored at 75 or better in the first four matches of her Florida State career. She tied her career-best score with a 67 in the third round of the Valspar – the fourth time in her career she has scored a 67.
Ting shared the ACC Player of the Month honor with Lauren Beaudreau of Notre Dame.
Florida State’s next team event comes at the ACC Championships (April 18-21) at the Porter’s Neck County Club on Wilmington, N.C. The Seminoles have finished as the runners-up in the ACC Championship in five of the last six years it has been played.
