Kraft Nabisco Championship First Round Scores

Paula Creamer played very well in the first round of the Kraft Nabisco Championship at Mission Hills Country Club despite continuing to suffer from a mysterious stomach ailment. She managed to navigate the par 72 course with 2 birdies, 16 pars, and most importantly… 0 bogeys.

All things considered, it was a very good start for Paula but it could have easily been much better. Her iron play was a little shaky at times and it cost her a few birdie opportunities. After the round, Creamer felt she had some work to do…

“I played better than 2-under and anytime I had a chance to make birdie with my wedge, you know, I had about a 20-footer. I’ll be hitting some wedges today after this interview.”

Despite missing a few scoring chances Paula still managed to put herself in position to make a run at her first major victory.

Here are the top scores from Thursday’s first round:

Brittany Lincicome – 66
Angela Stanford – 67
