Rianne Malixi cruised to the knockout stage at joint 24th with three others after a 73 but Grace Quintanilla failed to sustain a fine 71 start and limped out of the match play stage with an 85 in the US Girls' Junior at the Eisenhower Golf Club's Blue course in Colorado Tuesday (Wednesday in Manila).
Defending champion Yana Wilson of the US took the medal honors with a 68 spiked by a four-birdie binge from No. 12 as she assembled a six-under 138 to gain the top seeding when play shifts from stroke to match starting Wednesday.Joint first day leaders Anna Davis and Kiara Romero finished the 36-hole stroke play elims with 139 and 140 after a 71 and 72, respectively, while Canadian Anna Huang fired a 68 to join Thai Tarapath Panya and Chinese Kaili Xiao, who matched 73s, at fourth at 142.
But the multi-titled Ladies Philippine Golf Tour campaigner lost her rhythm and putting touch midway through, missing a par-putt bid on the ninth and yielding another stroke on No. 10.After hitting a solid tee-shot to within six feet and making the putt for birdie on the par-3 13th, she flubbed another short downhill birdie putt on the next, missed her drive and the green on No. 15 and made another bogey, then came up short on the long par-5 564-yard 16th that led to another bogey.
