Women's course record set during opening-round seeding of 2022 Match Play Championship

History was recorded Tuesday afternoon as Kelli Ann Strand carded an impressive 64 (-7) en route to her taking the No. 1 seed in the Women’s Match Play bracket. With what was a course-record round for any lady, Strand played her back nine in style with five birdies and an eagle to shoot a 28 (-7)—an impressive nine-hole score by even a pro’s standards.

Jason Azzarito was only a shot off the course record with his impressive six-under-par, 65. Taking the No. 1 seed in the Men’s Match Play bracket, Azzarito’s lone dropped shot was his bogey on the par-3 14th.

Brian Swenson, the No. 1 seed in the Men’s Master-40 Match Play bracket, also found himself in the red by shooting a two-under-par, 69. Scott Vermeer had the lone sub-par round in the Senior Men’s Division—shooting a 68 (-3)—to claim that division’s No.1 seed. Last but not least, Mike Rawls bested the men in the Super-Senior Division by posting a two-over-par, 73, to take the No. 1 seed.
