The 2024 Augusta National Women's Amateur champion shot a first-round 7-under 65 to lead the NCAA Division I women's championships at the Champions Course at La Costa Resort and Spa in Carlsbad, Calif.
Woad, the No. 3 ranked player in the Golfweek/AmateurGolf.com Women's Rankings, recorded eight birdies and one bogey, including birdies on holes No. 4, 5, 7, and 8 coming into the clubhouse since she started on hole No. 10.
According to Florida State Athletics, her score of 65 tied her best and the school record for the lowest score in a single round.
Isabella Rawl of Clemson is in solo second place after a round of 6-under 66. Rawl led the Tigers to the team lead in round one, along with Annabelle Pancake, who is T8. Rawl also had an impressive performance en route to the Tigers runner-up finish at the ACC championships and is continuing that momentum early on in California.
Adela Cernousek of Texas A&M, Maddison Hinson-Tolchard of Oklahoma State, Cayetana Fernandez-Garcia of Texas A&M, Sophie Linder of Ole Miss, and Louisa Carlbom of San Jose State are all T3 at 4-under.
