Hammond’s hot start powers her to the lead at Heatherwoode
For much of Thursday’s opening round of the Ohio Women’s Open, it felt less like a golf tournament and more like a showcase.
Mia Hammond and Gabby Woods spent the morning trading punches at Heatherwoode Golf Club, two of the championship’s biggest names delivering exactly the kind of golf spectators hoped to see.
In the end, it was Hammond who landed the biggest blow in round 1.
