The opening round of the inaugural FM Championship took place on Thursday. Marina Alex, the 34-year-old American professional, carded a completely bogey-free round and finished with a 4-under 68, leading by one stroke. Eight players are right behind her with a 3-under score, which could change the dynamics of the game in any round.
Among them are U.S. Team golfers Allisen Corpuz and Lauren Coughlin, who will be playing for the Solheim Team in two weeks. The second round on Friday will be an interesting sight to witness at TPC Boston.
