Camden Country Club was bombarded with birdies today for the first round of the 69th Carolinas Four-Ball Championship as 67 teams shot under par. At the end of the day, two teams found themselves tied for the lead; both past champions. The 2018 winners, Ben Woodruff of Huntersville, N.C. and Carson Ownbey of Canton, N.C., used more than just birdies to catapult themselves up the leaderboard as Ownbey made a double eagle on the par 5, 13^th hole. The albatross, along with eight birdies, puts the pair at 10-under-par after the first of two stroke-play qualifying rounds.

“We had a lot of fun out there. After Carson’s shot we went crazy, kind of lost it on the next hole but we were able to maintain ourselves coming in,” said Woodruff, the 2019 N.C. Amateur Match Play champion.

No strangers to Camden Country Club, the 2013 winners and three-time runner-ups, Paul Tucker of Waxhaw, N.C. and Brent Roof of Columbia, S.C., combined for one eagle, eight birdies, and no bogies to shoot an opening round 10-under-par, 60 and put themselves in a tie for first place.

The two sides take a one-shot lead over a stacked field into the second round of qualifying and will look to capture the Joe B. McCarley Cup which is awarded to the medalist team. Earning the number one seed would be helpful but the team is focused on staying on track to make match play.

Two teams are tied for third place after opening rounds of nine-under par, 61. Ford Reynolds of Columbia, S.C., and Wills Kelly of Camden, S.C. used 10 birdies and one lone bogey to shoot nine-under-par, 61. Tied with Reynolds and Kelly is the team of Anthony Conn of Raleigh, N.C. and Brandon Reece of Rolesville, N.C. Conn and Reece got off to a hot start with four straight birdies to start the round. Things cooled off but not for long as they finished eagle-birdie-birdie for their nine-under-par round.

All our teams will return tomorrow for one more round of stroke-play qualifying before the match play Round of 32 begins on Saturday morning.
