Shepherd shoots 73 at ANWA

Center Grove graduate Erica Shepherd finished an up-and-down round with her fourth birdie of the day to wind up with a 1-over-par 73 during the first round of the Augusta National Women’s Amateur on Wednesday at Champions Retreat.

Shepherd, a sophomore at Duke, was in a tie for 15th when play was suspended due to inclement weather late in the round. The top 30 players at the end of the second round today will play in Saturday’s final round at Augusta National.
