Marina Alex’s 4-under 68 over the Jack Nicklaus Signature Course puts her just one shot...
Marina Alex chips to the green on the 17th hole during the Chevron Championship women's golf tournament at The Club at Carlton Woods on Thursday, April 20, 2023, in The Woodlands, Texas. THE WOODLANDS — All week long the talk concerning the Chevron Championship’s new venue was that it favored a big hitter off the tee.
“For me, coming in with some longer clubs maybe relative to the rest of the field, it requires me to work pretty hard and be strategic about what I'm doing,” Alex said. “I'm going to try not to worry too much about that because I can't worry about how far I hit the ball off the tee,” Alex said. “I just need to handle that as it comes.”
On the inward nine, Alex went 3 under. When she finished her morning round, she was the only golfer in the 132-player field to reach 4 under.
