Don’t sleep on the two freshmen coming in for the women. Can take some time to adjust to college life but they can play

Good to hear! I have been expecting that Sá would compete and probably start from the get-go. Cattaneo has seemed more of a mystery, with fewer high-profile amateur starts. Will be eager to see if she works her way into the lineup.

The Euro Challenge Tour is in Belgium this week, and former Frog Jeong Weon Ko is atop the leaderboard at the halfway mark (-12). Alexander Knappe is T3.
I mentioned that the men's schedule this season has them in Georgia for the season-opener instead of in Carmel as in prior years. That appears to be because the Ewings are giving the women a shot at Pebble Beach this season. Unfortunately, the Frogs aren't among the 8 teams competing. Former Frog Jennie Park is making the most of the opportunity--she started 4-4-3-3-2 for the early co-lead.
Update: Park now -9 at the halfway point of the Carmel Cup. She is up 2 on Rose Zhang and 3 on Megha Ganne. For reference, she broke 70 twice in 54 rounds as a Frog.

Two former Frogs to play in the final group on Sunday in Belgium on the Challenge Tour. Jeong Weon Ko leads at -17; Alexander Knappe a shot back at -16. Somehow David Ravetto missed the memo; he could have made it an all-TCU group but is "only" T16.

Alexander Knappe moved to the top of the Road to Mallorca Rankings as a four under par round of 68 was enough to secure a fourth European Challenge Tour title at the B-NL Challenge Trophy by Hulencourt.,

Former Frog Alexander Knappe wins for the fourth time on the Euro Challenge Tour in Belgium, and second this season, closing with a final-round 68 to win by one. He now tops the order of merit and is assured of promotion to the DP World Tour.
Two Frogs in the top 5 as Jeong weon Ko finishes T4.
Three Frogs in the top 10 as David Ravetto finishes T9.
Highlights (hope in his victory speech he thanked the flagstick on 10): https://www.europeantour.com/challenge-tour/b-nl-challenge-trophy-by-hulencourt-2022/

TCU men kick off the season early Wednesday in the Frederica Cup at Frederica Golf Club on St. Simon's Island. This is a 6-count-5 tournament which tests team depth and gives coaches an opportunity to field an extra player. More than half of the 8-team field is in the preseason top 20, headlined by top-ranked Vanderbilt, #6 Tech and #9 OU.
Frogs will start all returning players (Oleson, Frimodt, Laussot, Hamm, Massey and Berzina). No major surprises there. Players will be on the course starting at 6:30 Central (paired with Georgia). Follow scoring at: https://results.golfstat.com/public/leaderboards/gsnav.cfm?pg=team&tid=25542.
TCU roster lists the two first-year recruits as well as a new name, Wilson Kelsey. Kelsey is as junior who played his first year at Sewanee. Not sure where he was last year.

Seems like the boys have picked up where they left off last year. Seven teams under par...and one team at +10.

Julien brun is off to a good start at wentworth this week on the DP World tour. Could be a great launching pad for him with a good week

OK, here's a bright spot. After mighty struggles in rounds 1 and 2, Chris Berzina posts a bogey-free six-under 66 at Frederica.

75 shots behind right now? Two teams are 66 under par. Holy smokes.
Vanderbilt has players -18, -16, -15 and -12. I don't care if they are playing at Z-Boaz. That's impressive.

Totally unrelated to TCU/college golf, but related to crazy golf scores.......did you see the Asian guy on the LIV tour who shot 87-63 in his first two rounds at Boston?

Tier 1
Yeah, that was crazy. I've had plenty of 12 shot swings in tournaments (83-71 type of scores), but 24 shots?
I did have one round in qualifying for the US Junior where I shot 83 the first day and was 5 under the next day through 15 holes, and made a couple of doubles coming in. Even if I'd closed that one out, it would have only been a 16 shot swing, which would have been unreal.

Heard today celli is making professional debut. Didn’t see it myself but was told. Big loss.

Sure enough, no "(AM)" after his name on the Italian Open leaderboard. A good place to make his pro debut. Agreed that it's a big loss, but he's had plenty of opportunity to gauge his readiness, and if he's able to keep leveraging his Open Championship medal into sponsor exemptions, it's probably a good time to make the transition.
Looks like he will make the cut and earn his first check (69-72, T33 with second-round play suspended). Too bad for the Frogs; hope he does great in the pros.

Jeong Weon Ko is having another good week on the Challenge Tour, just a shot off the lead with a few holes left in round 2 at the Open de Portugal. He's currently 37th on the Order of Merit; a win probably wouldn't vault him into the top 15 (number that get promoted to the DP World Tour), but it might get him within shouting distance with six events left on the calendar.

Celli is T46 at the Italian Open after a third-round 72. He's one shot better than Julien Brun and Stefano Mazzoli, the latter doing well in a rare DP Tour start. Brun and Mazzoli will be paired together in the final round.
And they may not be the only multi-Frog pairing on Sunday. David Ravetto shot a blistering 8-under 64 in Portugal to jump from 27th to T2, just two shots off the lead on the Challenge Tour. He's tied with Jeong Weon Ko, who had a share of the lead before making a couple of back-nine bogeys. Ko still has three holes left, but it's likely that both Frogs will play in the final group tomorrow.
Update: Ko with a birdie coming in--he's T1, with Ravetto a shot back. They'll both play in the final group.

Ko and Ravetto have made the turn in the final round of the Open de Portugal. Both made an early bogey followed by two front-nine birdies. Both birdied the 10th, Ko for a share of the lead; Ravetto a shot back.
www.europeantour.com
Update: With 4 holes left, Ravetto now T1 and Ko now a shot back.
In Italy, a late score correction shows that Brun finishes as the low Frog at +2 (T55). Celli finished a shot back and Mazzoli two back.

Ravetto a shot back of the lead playing the par-5 18th. Ko is now 3 back.
Update: David birdies the last for a final-round 68 to make a three-way playoff with countrymen Félix Mory and Pierre Pineau! If he wins, it will be his first Challenge Tour victory. Ko finishes T8.
