Past results at Hurricane Invitational could bode well for ISU women’s golf
March 2, 2015
Senior Chonlada Chayanun notched her first collegiate victory at the Lady Puerto Rico Classic on Feb. 17. Almost a year earlier on March 5, 2014, fellow Thai and then-senior Sasikarn On-iam tied for first at the Hurricane Invitational to earn her first medalist/co-medalist honors.
No. 30 Iowa State will return to Coral Gables, Fla., to compete once again at the Hurricane Invitational on March 2. The Cyclones as a team almost joined On-iam on top last year, falling one shot short to finish in second place.
The bulk of the credit for the Cyclones’ near miss was attributed to On-iam’s career performance, but the team also received contributions from current members making a return trip to the Sunshine State this week.
Chayanun posted rounds of 73, 70 and 72 to tie for seventh place at three-over-par. Junior Cajsa Persson recorded totals of 72, 74 and 75 to finish in a tie for 26th place at seven-over-par.
Freshmen Celia Barquin, M.J. Kamin and Nattapan Siritrai will make their first appearance at the Hurricane Invitational, which will be held from March 2 to 4 at the Biltmore Golf Course in Coral Gables, Fla.
