The Q-School Series are launched. Remember that this last phase is played over two rounds, ie 144 holes. This is the last step for these players to obtain a green fee on the LPGA Tour.

After the first round, three players are in the lead at -6: Mexican Alejandra Llaneza, Taiwanese player Peiyun Chien and Danee Emily Kristine Pedersen.

Victorious player in the Solheim Cup this year in the United States, Emily Kristine Pedersen has decided to try her luck this year to join the LPGA. She made a brilliant first lap with an eagle and six birdies for just two bogeys.

Pauline Roussin-Bouchard is ranked 25th at -2. After going to -1 with two birdies for a bogey, the young player managed to snatch a return under par thanks to an eagle on her final hole: three birdies for as many bogeys, and an eagle for a 69 (-2 ).

Just behind her, we find Julie Aimé. She returns a card under par at -1, a wise game with two birdies for just one bogey. She is 40th.

A blow behind ranks Agathe Laisné. After two bogey on its first nine holes and a passage in +2 on its go, it signs three birdies for a bogey on its last nine holes and ends in the PAR. She is 53rd.

Emma Broze, after a difficult day in +6 ranks 106th.
