Ko Jin-young, who is aiming for her third win of the season, also maintained the top in the second round of the LPGA Tour hosted by "Legend" Annika Sorenstam (Sweden).

Ko Jin-young reduced one stroke in the second round of the LPGA Tour's The Anika Driving Gainbridge at Pelican Golf Club (par 70) in Bel-Air, Florida, on the 11th (Korea Standard Time) to 8 under par in the first and second rounds, beating leader Emily Kristen Pederexon (Denmark, 12-under) by four strokes to tie for fourth place. Ko Jin-young, who showed a clean appearance without a bogey on the first day of the tournament, only reduced one stroke with five birdies and four bogeys on the day.

Ko Jin-young's second-round fairway landing rate was 85.7% (12/14), the green hit rate was 72.2% (13/18) and the number of putts was 29, all down from the previous day. In particular, she lost a lot of strokes by writing down three consecutive bogeys from hole 1 to hole 3 in the second half.

However, Ko Jin-young remained at the top until the second round of the tournament, leaving her hope for her third win of the season following the HSBC Women's World Championship in March and the Cognitive Founders Cup in May.

Yang Hee-young shot 5 under par on the day, raising her ranking significantly to tie for 13th (6 under par). Chun dropped two shots to rank the same as Yang Hee-young. Lee Jung-eun 6 tied for 31st place (4 under par) and Ji Eun-hee tied for 40th place (3 under par).

Joo Soo-bin and Yoo Hae-ran then tied for 62nd (1-under), and the standard for passing the cut in this tournament is 1 under.


Meanwhile, Pedersen, the leader, showed strong performance for two consecutive days, raising the possibility of winning her first LPGA Tour title. After the game, Pedersen said, "I try to swing well at every hole. So far, I'm playing what I like," he said, expressing satisfaction. The third round of the tournament will be broadcast live from 2:45 a.m. on the 12th on JTBC Golf.
