Lopez Continues To Roll

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – University of Arkansas senior Gabriela Lopez carded her fourth consecutive round of par or better and remains tied for ninth with one round remaining after round four of stage three of the LPGA’s Qualifying School in Daytona Beach, Florida, Saturday.

Lopez posted scores of 68-72-70-70=280 and is seven back of the leader with the final round Sunday at LPGA International. The top 20 players earn full membership to the LPGA Tour. She is the top finishing amateur after four rounds.
