Here's a snap shot into how Jaclyn Sweeney fared during her 1-under par 72 in the ISPS Handa Women's Australian Open first round:
- Sweeney drove the ball pretty straight, hitting 11 of 15 fairways Thursday.
- The former Arizona State standout reached 13 of 18 greens in regulation. That was good for 72.22 percent.
- Tournaments at the elite level are won and lost with the short game - those shots 100 yards-and-in - and Sweeney was working on that facet during the break between Q-School and the 2011 season. However, her two bogeys stemmed from missed greens. Sweeney was unable to get it up-and-down - including one from the sand - on Nos. 3 and 9.
- The putting stats on Sweeney: 31 total. She needed 25 putts on holes reached in regulation. But both figures were an average of less than two per hole.
- Sweeney had two drives recorded for length, on the par-5 2nd and 442-yard par-4 18th.
- She cranked it 238 and 225 yards, respectively.
- In all the round resulted in three birdies, two bogeys and 13 pars. Not bad for a debut round, which has left her five shots behind the leaders.
Sweeney fared better off the back, firing a 3-under par score, as opposed to the front that yielded zero birdies on her scorecard in round one.
