Nelly Korda is T3 as she chases history. But she’s also 11 back

Nelly Korda is in contention for a historic feat at the AIG Women’s Open, currently tied for third place. However, she faces a significant deficit, trailing leader Ashleigh Buhai by 11 strokes.

Despite her strong start, Korda’s title hopes hinge on gaining ground on the leaders over the final two rounds. Should she prevail, she would become the first American to win three women’s golf majors in the same year since Babe Zaharias in 1950.

The tournament remains wide open, with several players within striking distance of the lead. The unpredictable Scottish wind and challenging Muirfield course could provide opportunities for upsets and surprise performances.

G. Kim stumbles to 76, still shares LPGA lead

G. Kim Falters to 76, Maintains LPGA Co-Lead

South Korea’s G. Kim’s strong start at the LPGA’s LA Championship has been marred by a disappointing second round. After shooting a bogey-free 64 on Thursday, Kim struggled to maintain her momentum, carding a four-over-par 76 on Friday.

Despite her setback, Kim remains tied for the lead with fellow South Korean Sei Young Kim, who carded a one-under-par 70. American Danielle Kang, who held a share of the lead after the opening round, trails by one stroke after shooting a 71.

Kim’s struggles on Friday were evident early on, with a bogey on the second hole and another on the fourth. She also had a double-bogey on the par-three sixth hole. On the back nine, Kim managed a birdie on the 10th hole but gave it back with a bogey on the 12th.
