EVANS -- Megha Ganne believes in visualizing her goals and trying to speak them into existence.
She arrived at Champions Retreat Golf Club for this week's Augusta National Women's Amateur and kept telling herself the story she wanted to see, first in Wednesday's opening round and then Thursday for round two.
She had a low number and a strong start in mind, but even she couldn't have foreseen this - a new tournament record 9-under 63, leaving the Stanford junior alone atop the leaderboard to begin her fifth ANWA appearance.
"I think it was just a really good day," she said shortly after blistering a rain-battered Champions Retreat.
