Mylton tied for 49th place at Women’s Amateur Public Links Championships

LEXINGTON, KY – UNC Greensboro senior Ashley Mylton fired an opening round 77 which placed her tied for 49th place after the first round of stroke play at the U.S. Women’s Amateur Public Links Championship at Kearney Hill Golf Links.

Mylton qualified for the championships by shooting a 72 at the sectional qualifier held at the University of North Carolina’s Finley Golf Course last month. The rising senior birdied the fifth sudden death playoff hole to become one of six qualifiers at the sectional.

The U.S. Women’s Amateur Public Links Championship began in 1977 at Yahara Hills Golf Course in Madison, Wisc. The WAPL is open to female golfers who have been bona fide public-course players since Jan. 1 of the current championship year. The competition is open to any bona fide public-course player whose USGA Handicap Index does not exceed 18.4. The WAPL is one of 13 national championships conducted annually by the USGA, 10 of which are strictly for amateurs.

The Charlotte, NC native was UNCG’s top golfer for most of the 2006-07 season. She played in all 10 tournaments and recorded five Top 20 finished, including a season-best tie for 10th place at the Lady Pirate Invitational in October. She helped the Spartans to a fourth place finish at the Southern Conference championships and finished in 14th place individually.
