AUBURN, Ala. (EETV) - Scoring low once again, Freshman Elina Sinz is fourth player on the leader board after day two of The Ally at Old Waverly.
During the second day of the meet, Sinz took lead of the Auburn women’s golf team. On Monday, she shot a 68 (-4). On Tuesday, she shot a 71 (-1), followed by four birdies.
The Tigers fought hard with all five players in the lineup shooting 76 or better on Tuesday but fell to fifth after carding a 294 (+6) in round two.
“It was a bit of a disappointing round for the team but a solid round for freshman,” Sinz said.
Auburn head coach Melissa Luellen remained hopeful as she said, “The course was scorable today, and I felt like we threw some shots away. We have to be sharp with decision-making and committing to those decisions to post a good, solid round tomorrow. We certainly have the firepower, just need the execution.”
