GRANGER, Ind. - Despite a 40 minute weather delay, 117 girls completed their qualifying round in the WWGA 79th National Junior Championship at Knollwood Country Club in Granger, Ind.
Niles' Elizabeth Ecker participated in the qualifying round. Ecker shot an 84, just missing her chance at the championship.
A playoff for seven positions in Championship Flight concluded at 8:30 p.m. Leader in the clubhouse is Anita Gahir, Thornhill, Ontario, Canada, with a 69.
Kelsey Meyer, a high school junior from Chesterfield, Mo., placed second with a 73. Tied at 74 were Meghan Gockel, Dallas, Tex.; Lindsey Haupt, St. Louis, Mo.; Kelsey Lindenschmidt, West Chester, Ohio; and Piper Miller, Laguna Beach, Cal.
Julia Potter, Granger, led the players from Indiana with a 76. Jennifer Nagel, Auburn, shot a 77. Both Audrey Felmeth, Indianapolis, and Laura Ormson, Granger, turned in 78s. Tied at 79 were Brittany Kelly, Fishers; Terra Miller, Crown Point; Ellen Mueller, Evansville; and Chelsea Silvers, Martinsville.
Sadly, Jennifer Hong, Windemere, Fla., formerly of Mishawaka, shot an 80 and has missed out on the opportunity to win both the WWGA National Amateur Championship and the WWGA National Junior Championship in the same year.
No one in the 105 year history of the organization has been able to do so.
Players who advanced through the playoff for Championship Flight include:
Ashley Smith, Calgary, Alberta, Canada; Tyrette Metzendorf, Winter Haven, Fla.; Natalie Hocott, San Antonio, Tex.; Ellen Mueller, Evansville, Ind.; Terra Miller, Crown Point, Ind.; Abby Spieler, California, Mo.; and Chelsea Silvers, Martinsville, Ind.
Today, the low 32 (after the playoff) will compete in Championship Flight.
All the remaining players have been placed in flights based on the qualifying round scores. Match play will continue throughout the week with the finals in all flights taking place on Friday morning.
The tournament is open to the public free of charge.
