Marta Perez joins Brooks in top 25 on the leaderboard
AUBURN, Ala. -- After one round of the Evans Derby Experience, the Gators sit in seventh posting a 4-over.
Florida was anchored by sophomore Sierra Brooks who carded a team best 2-under round and is tied for ninth on the leaderboard entering Monday.
Brooks sunk four birdies while carding just two bogeys on No. 3 and No. 18 en route to her 70.
Marta Perez joined Brooks in the top 25. Perez finished the last nine holes three under to work her way back to an even-par 72.
Addie Baggarly and Taylor Tomlinson both tied for 46th Sunday as their 3-over scores counted for the Gators. Tomlinson carded three birdies while Baggarly circled the scorecard twice to post opening round 75 scores.
Florida will tee off round two tomorrow at 9:30 a.m. (ET) paring up with South Carolina, Alabama and Wake Forest. Round two will be a shotgun format with the Gators teeing off from holes 7 to 11.
Coach's Take:
On feelings after day one -- "We got off to a slow start today and we did everything we could to try and turn in around. We were fighting and didn't give up and that will serve us well the next two days. I saw some toughness today even though we didn't play our best golf and I'm pleased about that." -- Coach Emily Glaser
