The third and final round will again be shotgun start Tuesday morning at 8am, with award presentations at the conclusion of the round. 

The Thunderbirds

There wasn't a lot to take from the first tournament of the year for the Women's golf team, due to the matchplay format. How each competitor approaches a matchplay event will be different than how they approach a standard tournament so this is really the first opportunity for the Thunderbirds to show what they are made of and what their season is going to look like. 

Tournament comes a couple weeks before the Thunderbirds have their host tournament in St. George, Utah. 

There will be live scoring available throughout the whole tournament at golfstat.com
