Yeji Shin makes the most of her opportunity, leading the Frogs with a 1-over 72 on the short-but-difficult Rio Mar CC Ocean Course, good for T6 individually. Grace Do is T9 individually at +2.

As a team, TCU is in fourth place after Day 1.

E Arkansas - 284
+ 8 Kent State - 292
+12 Iowa State - 296
+13 TCU - 297
+15 NC State - 299
+18 Maryland - 302
+19 East Carolina - 303

Not sure what the course/weather conditions are like, but the scores in the Lady Puerto Rico Classic are very high. Not a single player in the field broke par today.

TCU posts a 306 (76-76-77-77) for the day (+22). They are in 6th.

Yeji Shin still in 8th place individually.

Final day of the Puerto Rico Classic looked a lot like the second. Again, no player broke par, but Annika Clark matched par to post the day's best score and finish T9 individually.

Yeji Shin finished T13 in her first start for the Frogs.

As a team, TCU finished 6th in the 11-team field.

The main impact the tournament will have is raising all of the players' average scores. Both Clark and Emmy Martin are gunning to set the single-season scoring record for TCU, which is 72.9 by Martin last year.

Ever leave 35 points on the board in fantasy football when you left the wrong guy on the bench? That's how Bill Montigel probably feels tonight.

TCU's Triston Fisher is tied for 3rd individually after his 4-under 68 in the Wyoming Desert Intercollegiate. Unfortunately, he's competing as an individual as the Frogs' sixth player.

Had Montigel switched players 5 & 6, the Frogs would be in 3rd place at -3 instead of 10th place at +5. But that how golf go.

Stefano Mazzoli continued his good run of play with a 3-under 69, but not a lot else to write home about for the Frogs, except plenty more golf to play.

-13 Cal
-4 Tech
-1 Colorado
+1 UCLA
+2 Tennessee
+2 UC Riverside
+4 Kansas
+4 UT Arlington
+4 S. Illinois
+5 TCU
+5 ODU
12 other teams higher

Frogs move up to 9th in Palm Springs with a collective team round of +1 for a two-day total of +6. They're in a logjam of teams and could finish anywhere from 4th to 13th depending on tomorrow's performance. Only 5 higher-ranked teams in the field, so some work to do to match expectations.

Individually, Mazzoli is T15 and Fisher T24.

Host team Wyoming is a shot ahead of the Frogs but with an even worse case of left-its-best-score-on-the-bench than what TCU had yesterday with Fisher. The tournament leader is the Cowboys' Dan Starzinski, playing as an individual. Can't really blame the coach; Starzinski hadn't posted a sub-par round in a tournament all year before posting 69-64 this week. Had he started, Wyoming would be -13 as a team instead of +5.

Frogs have a decent day in Palm Springs, moving up to finish 6th as a team, which is where the rankings projected they would finish.

David Ravetto closed with a 5-under 67 and was TCU's top finisher at -4 (T15). Triston Fisher finished at -1 (T25). Stefano Mazzoli was poised for a top-10 finish but went +5 on his last 4 to finish at even (T33).

Cal won the tournament, with Texas Tech second. Hard to overstate how good Cal was. Their score is one stroke off the equivalent of having four players shoot 68 in every round. Individually, the Bears finished T1, T1, T5, T12, T25.

-47 Cal
-27 Tech
-19 Colorado
-16 UCLA
ev Kansas
+ 2 TCU
...17 other schools

TCU men are on the course at the Wexford Invitational, playing Wexford Plantation at Hilton Head.

This is mostly a regional tournament featuring mostly smaller schools from the south (Radford, Wofford, Mercer, Furman) though Georgia and Memphis are also in the field. Frogs are one of the highest-ranked teams in the field, so they'll be looking to contend.

So far, Frogs are in 5th through 13 holes. Follow scoring here: http://results.golfstat.com//public/leaderboards/gsnav.cfm?pg=team&tid=13924

TCU men are in second place by a stroke after a strong 36-hole day at Myrtle Beach.

Frogs were the only team to break par during the morning round in Myrtle, posting five birdies on the last three holes to get to -1. They did even better in the afternoon round, shooting -7, but were caught by Georgia. Memphis is the only other team within 10 shots of the lead.

South Carolina-Aiken has three of the top 40 individually ranked players but none of them is in the top 15 through 36 holes, and they sit 9th.

Individually for the Frogs, David Ravetto is T2 at -5, three back of the leader. He was +2 through 11 holes in the morning but played -7 from there with a bogey-free 67 in the afternoon round.

Stefano Mazzoli is T9 at -3; Pierre Mazier is T17 at even after leading TCU in the morning round with a 69.

-9 Georgia
-8 TCU
-1 Memphis
+3 High Point
+3 Furman
+6 Radford
12 other teams at +10 or worse

Edit: Turns out that SC-Aiken and its hot-shot players were ranked in Golfstat's lower-division rankings, which are hard to distinguish from its D1 rankings when a mix of schools competes in the same event. Frogs were the top-ranked team in the Wexford field and Mazzoli the top-ranked individual player.

Stefano goes low and the TCU men win in Hilton Head!

While the rest of the field fell away (23+ shots back), Georgia and the Frogs battled for the team title at the Wexford Plantation Intercollegiate. With four holes left, Georgia led by two, but the Frogs made up three shots down the stretch to win by a single shot at -11.

Stefano Mazzoli was tournament medalist, shooting a scorching 7-under 65 to finish at -10, two shots better than UGa's Davis Thompson.

David Ravetto finished T5 overall at -3, and Pierre Mazier was T9 at even par.

Great job, Frogs!

TCU women got off to a slow start yesterday at The Woodlands. They are T11 in a 17-team field at +12.

Individually, Annika Clark led the Frogs in round 1; she's at +1 (T21).

One of the Frogs' most consistent performers, Emmy Martin, has had a rough start to the spring slate; her 79 on Tuesday followed three similar rounds in Puerto Rico. I wrote off the earlier result as a situation where conditions were tough and the course setup might not have fit her eye. Was hoping to see her bounce back this week.

Edit: The tournament was reduced to one round after Monday's weather cancellation. That's a final result. No fun.

That’s pretty damn impressive regardless but being at Hilton Head is nuts. Pretty sure they have the smallest greens on the PGA tour

Tournament was at the Wexford Plantation course on Hilton Head, which is about 16 minutes' drive from Harbour Town, where the PGA tournament is held.

Understand the confusion, especially when I said earlier that the Frogs were playing in Myrtle Beach. That's about three hours' drive from where they actually played.

Angela Stanford is going super-low in Singapore.

She was T27 heading into the final round of the HSBC Women's World Championship, a tournament she won a few years ago. No big deal.

Well, she's -10 through 16 holes and has moved up to T4, just two shots off the lead.

Course record is -8, tied earlier this week by Danielle Kang. The biggest threat to Angela setting the new record? Sei Young Kim, who is also -10 with one hole to play.

Follow Angela's finish at: http://www.lpga.com/tournaments/hsbc-womens-world-championship/leaderboard

Update: Angela bogeys the last for a nine-under 63; Kim sets the course record a few minutes ahead of her at 62. Angela finishes T8 her first top-10 of the year.

Update 2: The front-nine 29 Angela shot on Sunday was the first time she'd broken 30 for 9 holes in a tournament round. Congrats on the milestone, Angela!

TCU men with a strong first round in Las Vegas. In a loaded field, they are in 3rd place at -1, sitting ahead of three top-10 teams and trailing only #5 Florida and host team UNLV.

Individually, Stefano Mazzoli and Pierre Mazier continued their recent good run of play, both posting 2-under 70s, which has them tied for ninth place.
