Megan Osland's professional golf career is off to a positive start.
The Kelowna product finished a solid fourth last week in her first full pro event at the National WomenÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s Golf Association tournament in Beaumont, CA.
Battling strong wind at Morongo Golf Club, Osland carded an opening round 76, followed by a 78 to sit in seventh place through two rounds.
In the third and final round, in even windier conditions, Osland equalled the best score of the day with a two-over par 74 to finish solo fourth with a 228 total.
Osland said she was satisfied with the end result, considering the adverse conditions.
She graduated from San Jose State University in December 2015 with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Recreation Management.
Osland was the captain of the Spartans Div. 1 women's team and won the Juli Inkster Invitational and the Wyoming Cowgirl Desert Intercollegiate in her final year.
The KSS grad is now dedicating herself full time towards a professional career and will play this season on the Symetra Tour, the main developmental tour for the LPGA.
