GEMMA AND JODI IN TOP 20 WITH
ROUND TO GO AT GRAND CYPRESS

United States Curtis Cup player Amanda Blumenherst (Duke University) showed her class with a second-round of 65, seven under par for the 6,223yd Grand Cypress course to forge 10 shots clear of the field on nine-under-par 135 with one round to go in the UCF Challenge women’s college tournament at Orlando, Florida.
Scotland cap Gemma Webster (Ohio State), pictured right, is in joint 15th place with scores of 76 and 74 for 150. Gemma started her second round at the 12th and bogeyed the 13th and 15th before she hit form with birdies at the 16th and 17th, only to fall back again with bogeys at the 18th, third and fourth. But the Hilton Park Golf Club member finished on a high with a birdie at the 10th.
Jodi Ewart, from Catterick, a student at New Mexico University, has scored 76 and 75 for a share of 17th place on 151.
Jodi began at the fifth and she double-bogeyed the long seventh and dropped a third shot at the ninth. Then she had back to back birdies at the 10th and 11th before she dropped another shot at the 12th and then double-bogeyed the 13th.
Miss Ewart’s roller-coaster ride continued with a birdie at the 14th but she parred the remainder of the holes.
With three players in the top six, Duke are galloping away with the team title. They lead by 21 strokes from Pepperdine.
