Blog 190, 3/8/12 - Gebhardt Shoots Third Straight 74
On a tough day for scoring when the top 20 finishers averaged 75.9 and no one shot in the 60s (Joy Trotter, a product of the George Pinnell Golf Academy in Rowland Heights, Calif. got closest with a 70), Gebhardt's 74 represented another solid round, though she is certain what area of her game still needs attention.
"I know what I need to work on to get better…mental game," she said on her blog following the final round. "And I will do this by starting a journal about what I do well when I play well. I'm looking forward to improving this aspect of my game because I know it is the one thing holding me back."
Gebhardt will try to Monday qualify for next week's LPGA Tour event - the RR Donnelley Founders Cup - which will be played on the back nines of the Faldo and Palmer Courses at Wildfire GC that she played this week. Her knowledge of the course is bound to be an asset, so hopefully she'll be able to break the sequence of 74s and earn the opportunity to go up against the likes of Yani Tseng, Na Yeon Choi, and Suzann Pettersen - the top three female players in the world.
