Faith Guevara experienced a similar rise in the tournament as she utilized the momentum from an eagle on 15 in her first round to move to an 8 over for the day and then led the team in the second round with a 2-over 74 to move up six spots into a tie for 17th at 10 over par.

Elexxis Mingming was a model of consistency posting rounds of 78 and 77 with three birdies in her final round to tie for 21st at 11 over par. Dominican had two individuals at the tournament as well as Jenny Lee posted rounds of 81 and 76 to place 26th at 13 over par with Jacie Johnson one stroke behind her tied for 27th after posting rounds of 80 and 78.
