KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The MIAA announced on Wednesday afternoon that Shi Qing Ong was named MIAA Women’s Co-Golfer of the Week. Ong receives the recognition for the second-consecutive week, sharing the honors this week with Hannah Perkins of Fort Hays State.
Ong receives the award after winning the Jennies Invitational in Warrensburg earlier this week. Ong has now won each tournament that Missouri Western has participated in this spring. After finishing the first round in second place following her score of 75 (+4), Ong completed an impressive second round with a 69 (-2) to win the event. Her second-round score was the best of any of the 75 golfers in the field, and also ties her career-best single-round score. She parred 26 of her 36 holes over the two rounds, while also adding four birdies.
With her win on Tuesday, Ong has now won three-straight events this spring. The victory also brings her career total at Missouri Western to 12.
Ong and Missouri Western will continue their spring season at the Henderson State Invitational in Arkadelphia, Arkansas on April 1.
