A pair of 17-year-olds, Tianyu Wu and Petr Hruby, share the lead at 7 under, but they have plenty of chasers
First-round leader U Minn Woon (Jacksonville, Fla.) showed some character on Saturday, overcoming a disastrous start to get himself back into contention. Woon started the day 7 under but made back-to-back double bogeys at the 2nd and 3rd holes, and lost another shot at the par-3 5th. But Woon steadied himself with a string of pars, and then reeled off four birdies in a five-hole stretch on the back nine en route to an inward 31 and a 71 total. Woon will enter the final round one shot behind the co-leaders. Jeremy Sisson, a 19-year-old from Skaneateles, N.Y., shares 4th spot with Ben Reichert of Tampa, Fla. and the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Reichert shot 67 and Sisson shot 70 to sit just two shots back of the lead. With five more players within four shots, the final round is shaping up to be a tight battle for the conquistador's helmet awarded to St. Augustine Amateur champions. In all, 14 players are under par through 36 holes. The low mid-amateur through two rounds is Jeff Golden (Jacksonville, Fla.), the 2018 Florida Mid-Amateur runner-up who is tied or 15th at 1-over 141. The final round will played Sunday morning, with First Tee of North Florida participants once again serving as standard bearers for the final groups.Our leader group is teeing off now!
