With the Chase Backpack closed on Miyu Yamashita to build a fun last day, the moving day lived up to its name at the AIG Women’s Open.
Yamashita is named as two more than two 74, enough to stay on top of the mountain below 9.
But on her 24th birthday, the leader’s strengths are similar to the cake because it is usually cut into it.
The Japanese started the day with three-pole mats and the remaining seven mats for the third time, but gradually disappeared as the person lurked in the shadows.
Lim Kim shot just one shot after a bogey-free 67 while Andrea Lee shot backward after recording the same score.
Charley Hull is another person in charge, hitting the 66 crowd after every move, a number that only swells when she stays in the hunt.
Hull is part of a six-shot quartet with Megan Khang, Minami Kats and Rio Takeda, while the talent bulge is slightly further, but still within reach.
All of this adds up to be spent on Sunday.
Yamashita Perseverance – Justice
The afternoon started against Yamashita, who shot four shots in lead as she reached the second fairway.
Takeda paid for bogey to find the bunker on the opening fairway, but bounced with a birdie at the age of 5, Yamashita saw her advantage halved with three points.
The leader saved the bunker at the age of 8 and also benefited a lot on Tee’s 9th time after he benefited from the 8th place lie, but as those behind the rankings began to approach, she landed on Tee’s right hand on the 9th time.
However, as long as her lead goes from one shot to three shots, it returns in the other direction, Yamashita Birds 11 and 12.
The gains were eliminated by bogey at the age of 14 and 16, when she missed a five-foot-high man who saved the PAR at 17, saving further damage.
Yamashita had a strong expression on Birdie at the age of 18, but refused the opportunity to open the advantage of two shots, instead retaining the slimmest lead.
Like her game mate, Takeda named it 74 to make up for her own ground. But she is still very important in the game on a six-shot game and will know how much things will change when the trophy goes online.
Leaders Kim and Lee chase
Lin Jin let down on Saturday after a steady first round of the first round.
The first bird set the tone for the 2020 U.S. Women’s Open champion, who won four more cards and made sure she will set off with Yamashita in the final set on Sunday.
Lim Kim is one shot behind.
Andrea Lee also fought firmly after a harsh run around the round.
Seven birdies in 6 to 12 holes brought her to eight, and unfortunately she was not picking up another bird when she was 15 years old when her fragment bags hovered in the cup, somehow away from the cup.
Lee Bogey was outstanding in the infamous No. 16, but at least ranked third in the AIG Women’s Open.
Minami Katsu has been quiet for the week so far dominated by Japanese players, but she is another person who can take advantage of the calm afternoon situation.
She had two of the first three holes but didn’t drop another shot, seven birdies and an eagle, and saw her card as a 65 with a par below seven points, the highest round of the week.
Like Katu, Megan Khang is seeking her first major, and she hits 68 of six birdies to push herself into the hunt.
Hull offense
Charley Hull entered the par level and promised to attack 11 deficits. She is loyal to her words.
Hull rescues PAR after finding the bunker in 1st and starts grinding with bird ground in the hole below.
The 29-year-old never had a simple man to do things, landing on the 17th tee on the fourth tee, frightening Minjee Lee in the process.
She put out the PAR on the fire, spinning three birds, and then saw her arrive at 31 at 9 o’clock.
Before her only flaw, there were two other birds who made a continuous critical savings after the bogey at the age of 13 and 14. At 15, she was brilliantly throwing a green bunker out and being dug in, and a tricky putter lined up at 16.
Her potential chance at 18 holes on 5 strokes passed hers, but Hull upgraded to her runner-up from Walton Heath in 2023.
Charley Hull enjoys a violent moving day.
At one stage, Georgia Hall had a similar momentum behind her, reaching six o’clock when she was birding.
But trouble happened in the next hole when she made two attempts to escape the sand, and back-to-back bogey meant she would start with a four-shot down on Sunday.
Mimi Rhodes shot forward, hitting four birdies 16 and 17, while Lottie Woad also sat three points at three-thirds.
Royal Porthcawl member Darcey Harry slid to the horizontal pole position after 74 rounds.
Sampedro Lead Smyth Salver Race
Paula Martin Sampedro caught the initiative in Smyth Salver’s game.
The Spaniard named par for 70s below PAR, the only one of the three remaining amateurs in the field to make a profit.
“The leading amateurs will be a good recognition,” Sanpero said. “I’m happy to see if I can have another good round tomorrow.”
Her compatriot Carla Bernat returned to three-thirds after 73 points, while Jeneath Wong was four.
