Record-Setting Performances Have Cowgirl Golf In Command At Big 12 Championships

April 19, 2021 | Cowgirl Golf

THE WOODLANDS, Texas – In a round for the ages, the Oklahoma State women's golf team smashed the Big 12 Championship scoring record by eight strokes and is now 16 shots up on the field with 18 holes to play at The Club at Carlton Woods.

Anchored by four rounds in the 60s and a record-setting performance from Isabella Fierro, OSU carded an 18-under 270, which topped the previous Big 12 Championship record of 278 set by Oklahoma in 2014. OSU's 36-hole score of 549 is the lowest in the event's history by 24 strokes.

Fierro carded a 7-under 65, which broke the Big 12 Championship scoring record and has the sophomore tied atop the leaderboard at 9-under 135 with 18 holes to go. Her 65 tied for the third lowest round ever by a Cowgirl golfer.

Not to be outdone, Lianna Bailey shot a bogey-free 5-under 67 on Monday, which tied for the fourth lowest round in Big 12 Championship history. The junior is in fourth place at 7-under 137, one stroke better than Cowgirl sophomore Maja Stark after back-to-back rounds of 3-under 69 for the sophomore.

Freshman Rina Tatematsu also found the 60s on Monday and found herself tied for sixth place after 36 holes. Tatematsu shot a 70 on Sunday and a 69 on Monday and is at 5-under 139 for the tournament.

Han-Hsuan Yu rounded out the field for OSU after a second-round 78 pushed her into a tie for 36th place.

Nine of the 10 rounds by Cowgirls golfers at the Big 12 Championship have been at or under par, including five rounds in the 60s. The 2021 Cowgirls now own the lowest first round score in Big 12 Championship history (279) and the lowest second-round score as well (270).

Heading into Tuesday's final round, Oklahoma State owns 23 conference championships, including nine Big 12 titles – three more than any other league foe. The final round will begin at 10 a.m. for Oklahoma State, and live scoring can be found at GolfStat.com.
