Weather delays second round, leaderboard packed at 100th Iowa Women’s Amateur
Mother nature was not on the side of the competitors at the 100th Iowa Women’s Amateur during round two’s afternoon wave. Tuesday saw a three-hour rain delay, which led to play being suspended due to darkness with several groups still left to finish their rounds. Round two play resumed Wednesday morning.
Heading into Wednesday’s final round it is anybody’s tournament.

North Liberty’s very own Bella Pettersen carded a 76 (+4) and is only one shot behind. Former Iowa State standout Ruby Chou stayed more patient and relaxed throughout round two carding an even round of 72. Chou sits behind Pettersen just by one shot.
In the Open Division Waterloo’s very own Kelly Nelson cards another 78 (+6) leaving her in the solo lead by three. Sitting in second Amy Weiland shot 80 (+8) and is (+15) through 36 holes. There is a two way tie for third and 163 (+19) between Geri Huser and Rosalie Kubesheski.
