Current Australian Amateur Champion and former New Zealand Amateur Champion Fiona Xu, from Auckland, also raced to an early 4 up lead through seven holes and eventually won 5&4 over her opponent Morgan Smith of Massachusetts.
The pair have reached the round of 32 where Bosio will face American Lee McKenzie and Xu tackles Emily Mathews of North Carolina.
