LPGA Mizuho Americas Open

Lee So-mi shot a 1-under 71 in the second round of the tournament at Liberty National Golf Club (par 71) in Jersey City, New Jersey, on the 18th (Korea time).

On the first day, she was the sole leader with 6 under par, and finished second with a 7-under par 137 overall. Although it was a step down from the previous day, it was in the lead with Yataya Thitikul (Thailand), who became the lead with a 9-under 135.

Lee, who has won five KLPGA tours, has been active in LPGA tours since this season. She tied for second in the LPGA qualifying series in December last year, and acquired the right to participate.

However, he went through hardships in the six competitions he took part in this year. He failed to make the cut four times, and tied for 13th place at the JM Eagle LA Championship last month was his best performance.

This tournament continued its hope of winning the championship beyond its first top 10 entry of the season by staying in the top until the second round, even though it was difficult to get a chance after waiting for the second round.

Lee recorded bogey at Hole 1 (par 4). She then exchanged consecutive birdies at Hole 4 through Hole 5 and bogeys at Hole 10 through 11, failing to reduce the number of strokes. Fortunately, she changed the trend to birdies at Hole 13 and 16, raising expectations for the next round.

Lee So-mi, who made a bogey on the first hole of the day, exchanged birdies on the fourth and fifth holes and bogeys on the 10th and 11th holes, failing to reduce the number of strokes, but changed the flow to birdies on the 13th and 16th holes, promising the third round.

Meanwhile, world No. 1 Nelly Korda of the U.S. tied for third with Ariya Jutanugarn of Thailand and others at 6-under 138.

Ko Jin-young, Kang Min-ji, and Alison Lee (USA), ranked fifth in the world, tied for 15th with 4-under 140.토토사이트
