Kansas senior Michelle Woods, who sits tied for 12th, had a solid first round with an even-par 72. Sophomore Pornvipa Sakdee finished one stroke behind Woods with a 73 (+1) and is tied for 14th. Senior Minami Levonowich carded a 74 (+2) as she stands tied for 23rd and other senior Gabriella DiMarco finished with an 80 (+8) and is tied for 77th.
