» With a restructured schedule starting the tournament a day earlier, Michigan opened the Valspar Augusta Invitational with a 287 (-1) to position the Wolverines in a tie for seventh.
» Moving directly to the second round, the 17-team field was able to get nine to 12 holes in before play was suspended due to darkness. The field plans to resume Saturday morning (March 9), however, inclement weather is expected. If the round cannot be played, plans are to finish the event Sunday (March 10).
» Sidney Yermish paced U-M in the first round, sitting in a tie for third after tying his career best with a 68 (-4) by recording four birdies, an eagle and a hole-in-one (No. 4, 135 yards).
» Hailey Borja used four birdies of her own to erase four bogeys and close her opening 18 at even par 72. She is tied for 25th.
