Burr led the Lady Blues with an overall score of 243 that included an opening round four-over par 76 where she added two birdies. Burr battled the tough weather conditions on day two as she shot a score of 88. In the final round, Burr improved nine strokes and shot a seven-over par of 79 that included a birdie on hole 16 and 10 pars.
