Sonja Tang finished atop the leaderboard with a 142 (69-73, -2) after birdying four of her first 11 holes to kick off the tournament. Grace Bell finished one stroke back of the lead with a 143 (70-73, -1). Elizabeth Labbe, Jessica Ng and Bo Brown combined to shoot +4 for the tournament and all finished in the top six overall.
