Florida State junior Charlotte Heath is in a tie for fifth place in the individual standings, and the Seminole Women’s Golf Team is in fifth place in the team standings after the first two rounds of the 34th Annual ACC Championships at the Sedgefield Country Club. Heath carded two under par scores on the first day of the championship and is just seven strokes behind Amanda Sambach of Virginia, who holds the individual lead heading into Friday’s final round of stroke play.
Florida State is 11 strokes behind Virginia in the race for one of the four top spots in the team standings during stroke play. The top four teams – currently Wake Forest, Duke, Clemson and Virginia – in the team standings after Friday’s final round of stroke play advance to two rounds of match play to determine the ACC Champions for the 2022-23 season.
Sambach carded scores of 68-66 for the 36 hole total of 134 as each of the 12 teams in the event played 36 holes on the first days of the championship. Sambach holds a two-stroke lead over Rachel Kuehn of Wake Forest, with Heath and a group of five golfers within seven strokes of the individual lead. The ACC individual champion will be crowned after the third round of stroke play on Friday.
Heath played spectacular golf throughout the day, as she was never over par for the first 36 holes of the championship. She carded five birdies on the day (one in the first round and four in the second round) and earned her sixth eagle of her Florida State career on hole No. 15 in the first round. She closed her first round with eight consecutive holes scored at par for a first round score of 71.
Heath caught fire early in the second round with two consecutive birdies on holes No. 5 and 6 as she dropped to 2 strokes under par. She totaled two birdies on her back nine, which allowed her to finish with a second round score of 70.
Heath’s 36-hole total of 141 is her second-best two round total of the spring season. She was at a career-best 137 after 36 holes of the Valspar Augusts Invitational in March, with scores of 71-66. Heath begins play on Friday looking to earn the first ever individual ACC title by a Florida State player, as well as her career-best third consecutive top-five finish.
Senior Amelia Williamson is in a tie for 27th place with scores of 74-74 for a two-round total of 148. She played her best golf of the day on her front nine in the second round, and she carded three birdies and five more holes scored at par. Williamson was two strokes under par on her front nine in the second round.
Freshman Lottie Woad is in a tie for 35th place after carding an even par 72 in her second round. The freshman, who is playing in her first postseason event for the Seminoles, earned five birdies over the course of six holes to begin the second round. She finished the round at even par and improved her individual position by 10 places from her first round finish.
Florida State will look to advance to the match play round for the third consecutive year as it begins play on Friday at 9 a.m. The Seminoles are paired with Virginia Tech and Virginia.
