Garner tied in second place at 6-over-par with Minnesota's Anna Laorr and finished with a single birdie in the opening rounds of the 54-hole tournament.

Alexandra White finished tied for fourth place at 9-over-par with five birdies on the day, while Annie Yang added four birdies at 15-over-par. Senior Selu Fotu tied for 79th place at 35-over-par with one birdie.
