BRONSON, KY (September 12, 2023) – Today marked day one of the Clark's Pump-N-Shop Women's Kentucky Senior Amateur, with defending champion Susan Stewart leading the field after the first round. The tournament, held at Woodson Bend Resort in Bronson this year, has been won by Stewart the last two years.

Stewart, in the Sophomore division, leads the tournament by three with a first-round 75. She had a very consistent round today, with just three bogeys on her card compared to 15 pars.
