Pancake Leads a Stacked Field at the 2022 Texas Women’s Open

ARGYLE, TX – Annabelle Pancake (a) fired an opening round 6-under-par, 33-33–66 to surge into the early lead at the 2022 Texas Women’s Open. Wildhorse Golf Club at Robson Ranch (South/North) is the host site for this year's Championship.

Pancake just completed her sophomore year at Clemson University and is making her second career start in the Texas Women’s Open. She played in the morning wave today which saw excellent scoring conditions. “Honestly my putting was the best part of my game today, I hit a lot of good shots but I was able to drain a lot of putts,” said Pancake. She comes into the week with plenty of experience as a two-time Indiana Women’s Amateur Champion.

Unfortunately, afternoon storms caused a three-hour and twenty-one minute delay. Play was suspended due to darkness at 8:30 p.m. and will resume at 7:30 a.m. tomorrow morning. Currently, 51 players are at even par or better. 

Defending Champion Kenzie Wright carded a 3-under-par, 69, putting her tied for 6th. She will look to catch Pancake over the next two rounds. “Going off the first hole this year was definitely a bit more intimidating and a little scarier. Especially when they say past champion while teeing,” said Wright.

This year's Championship features an overall purse of $50,000. Of the total purse $47,000 will be awarded to the professionals that make the cut and $3,000 to the amateurs in the form of gift certificates.

The 2022 Texas Women’s Open is presented by CG Infinity and TPX Communications and is supported by the Women’s All Pro Tour.
