RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. — Jennifer Kupcho is having a great 2022, and her opening round of 6-under 66 at the Chevron Championship on Thursday isn’t the reason.
Kupcho got married on February 19 in Arizona, and the sampling of wedding day photos she posted on Instagram includes a picturesque sunset shot of her taking a swing at a driving range with her wedding dress on.
She opted for the more traditional golf attire of green shorts and a black shirt on Thursday as she tore through the Dinah Shore Tournament Course. After four straight birdies on the back nine, she reached 8 under through 14 holes, which put her in striking distance of the record round of 10 under (shared by Lorena Ochoa and Lydia Ko). But back-to-back bogeys on 15 and 16 had her settling for a fine round of 66.
