Kinnerud won her first match by defeating Florentyna Parker of England, 1-up in 19 holes. The OSU junior-to-be had to win holes 17 and 18 to tie the match, then won it on the first extra hole.
In her second-round matchup, Kinnerud defeated Scotland's Jenna Wilson, 2 and 1. With the victory, she advances to Friday's third round where she will face fellow Swede and Arizona State sophomore-to-be Anna Nordqvist. That duo played together during the final round of the NCAA Division I Women's Golf Championships three weeks ago.
