Kingsville, ON – It was a gorgeous day for golf today all-around at Kingsville Golf & Country Club for the second round of the 2022 Ontario Junior Girls (U19) Championship.

Day one leader Swetha Sathish (Hidden Lake Golf Club) stays comfortably in the lead after finishing today’s round with a 2-under (70). Sathish now sits three strokes ahead of the rest of the field, heading into round three.

One golfer to watch on Wednesday is Shaughnessy Golf & Country Club’s, Lucy Lin. Lin put on a clinic at the course today, shooting a fantastic 6-under (66), the tournament’s lowest score so far. After an incredible day today, Lin will look to have a similar day tomorrow as she and the rest of the field attempt to dethrone Sathish from her first place position.

Third round tee times begin at 7:30 am tomorrow, off of holes one and ten. For media coverage of the Ontario Junior Girls (U19) Championship, please visit the Golf Ontario Facebook page to view our photo albums. To follow along with the leaderboard, visit our Golf Genius page.
