With three golfers in the top four of the individual standings, the Florida State Women’s Golf Team is in first place in the team standings of the Folds of Honor Collegiate at the American Dunes Golf Club heading into Wednesday’s final round of play. Junior All-American Mirabel Ting and freshman Sophia Fullbrook are tied for second in the individual standings, with All-American Lottie Woad close behind in fourth place. The sensational Seminole trio is a combined 5 strokes under par through the first 36 holes of the championship.
Florida State owns the team lead entering the final round with a two-round total of 9 over par 585. The Seminoles lead Arizona by one stroke, Ohio State by two strokes, Texas by six strokes, and Baylor by seven strokes. Carolina Melgrati of Arizona is the individual leader with a 5 under par score of 139.
“The message at dinner tonight is going to be ‘keep doing what you are doing’,” said Head Coach Amy Bond. “The more we can play this golf course, the better we can get. Today was a message of that. I think we just keep doing that.”
Fullbrook led the Seminoles in the second round with a 3 under par score of 69 and has a 36-hole total of 142. Ting carded a 2 under par 70 in the second round and also has a 36-hole total of 142. Woad finished with an even par 72 and has a 36-hole total of 143. Fullbrook and Ting are just three strokes behind Melgrati while Woad is in a familiar position in the top five and just four strokes out of the individual lead.
Fullbrook was the star of the day for the Seminoles as she totaled a 69 with a nearly clean scorecard. She totaled one eagle (the first of her collegiate career), two bridies and 17 holes scored at par or better. Her eagle came on hole No. 14. Her only blemish (a bogey) came on hole No. 4 (the Seminoles started on hole No. 10) which she quickly neutralized with her second birdie of the day just two holes later. Fullbrook finished her round with four consecutive holes scored at par.
Fullbrook’s score of 69 was tied with Melgrati for the lowest hole score of the round. Fullbrook’s score of 69 is one of the four scores in the 60s during the first two round of the championship.
Ting finished with a second round score of 72 and is tied with Fullbrook for second place with scores of 142.
Ting also enjoyed a nearly perfect scorecard with one birdie, 17 holes scored a par or better, and just one bogey. She earned scores of par on her first 11 holes, and her final five holes of the round.
Woad, the No. 1 ranked women’s amateur player in the world, finished the day with an even par score of 72. She totaled three birdies and was never above par at any time during the round. Woad has earned par or better scores in seven of her last nine collegiate rounds dating to the NCAA Las Vegas Regional championship in May of 2024.
“We’re all really close, so it’s fun when we are away and practicing together,” said Woad. “We just have to keep doing what we are doing; we don’t really try to change anything.”
Bond, who is the winningest women’s golf coach in school history, will look to lead the Seminoles into the winner’s circle for the 21st time as Florida State’s head coach. The Seminoles most recent team championship came at the IJGA Collegiate Invitational in February of 2024.
“This is the first tournament of the year and there is a lot going on,’ said Bond. “If they will play with a lot of confidence, it’s a nice little shootout. We’ll see what happens.”
