Kim Kim from South Korea on Friday in the second round of champions in Orlando in Orlando drinks a three-way leading on the weekend after the publication of the three-layer steam 69 in the second round of the champions tournament.
Kim led four after the first round and moved to 10 below the label halfway LPGA's season opener. Linn Grant of Sweden shot 67 in Golf & Country Club Nona Golf & Country, and now stands in seven below, while the world no. Nelly Korda also shot to join a third in six.
Tied to Korda are Japanese Rio Takeda and Ireland Leon Maguire, each of which has been announced 68 on Friday.
Kim, 29, ordered seven birds without Bogee in the first round, but on Friday there was more adventure, combining six birds with three gods.
“Still well,” Kim said. “Different (than Thursday), the wind was a different direction, but still fun.”
Kim won an American women's wife, then went without winning LPGA tour until last November, when she broke to win the Lotta Championship.
Grant closed him around the eagle in the ninth hole par-5. “I hit four hybrid in green of 220 meters,” she said. “Then I just had 12 feet and he entered.”
Grant, 25, will be in a mix on weekends. Her only victory of LPGA came to 2023. Day Open, but she is a six-sacrifice to the ladies of the European tour.
Korda, 26, made her only on a day on the fourth hole, a couple-three 13, to fall to even a couple for the tournament. She recovered with consecutive birds at 14 and 15, added one to 18. and knocked in three more arrivals home.
World no. 1 Nelly Korda enjoyed a strong other day on Florida, crossing to within four of the lead shots
“I just agreed a little more, made a few more times, hit a few solid shots,” Korda said. “(The course) definitely play a little softer and longer compared to the past year.”
Korda was a seven-year-old winner last season and aimed at starting 2025 in a similar winning way.
Maguire, 30, had a double Bogee on a couple-three13. But more than compensated to the bird of his last five holes of the day.
“That's my house course, so I know these holes pretty well,” she said. “I know I can bobble everything, so only the case of trying to give a chance. Hit some really beautiful iron shots and I didn't leave myself a bird.”
Jin Young Ko (70) Jin Yin (70) is alone in the sixth century below. Defense of the champion and the world no. 2 Lydia Ko of New Zealand has released 67 to get to four under the tournament in a tie for the seventh with Lauren Caughlin (68).
