UNITED STATES FUTURES TOUR

 

VIKKI HAS 75 ON COMEBACK ROUND

IN UNITED STATES FUTURES TOUR

 

 

Vikki Laing, playing her first competitive round for several weeks, returned a three-over-par 75 in the first round of the Horseshoe Casino Futures Classic at Lost Marsh Golf Club, Hammond in Indiana today

The Musselburgh player started at the 10th hole and reached her turn in 40 shots. She bogeyed the short 11th, birdied the long 13th and then ran up a triple bogey 7 at the par-4 15th and dropped another shot at the 16th to be four over par with nine to play.

Then the former Curtis Cup player, who has had a lean time since she turned professional, settled down to cover her remaining holes in one under par 35 with a birdie at the sixth.

American Lori Atsedes was the early leader with a 68.
