Straight in. Bit of a basketball shot. Nothing but net. That was a great feeling walking onto that green. Pick the ball out the hole. Don’t need your butter. An absolute tap in there. Yeah. And for her third birdie in the front nine. Tap in there on the ninth. Excellent cut there. [Applause] Yeah, well done. Excellent. Two days of work. Must have to flirt with those bunkers. Oh, flirt. Bought him many drinks and Oh my goodness. Took off a bit right, didn’t it? And I don’t think it’s coming back from her reaction. And that is deep. Oh no. Right under it. Fear for that. Thought it went forward a yard or so, but not from about 60 yards. You could just hear the sound of it. Just got enough of it. Pretty tidy little chip there. How about a birdie for Ingred? He’s coming around. There we are. Something for the code. Head at two, up and in at two. She’s just going to give it a big whack cuz we’re going for a third place and hope for the best. Take a look at this. That is excellently played from Charlie Hall there. Dangerous little shot. Oh, she got some spin on it. Did she ever? What a shot. Second Eagle of the Day for the young Aussie. This third shot for Leona Maguire. And she is just deadly with a wedge in her hand. That was just a Beautiful, beautiful play. Beautiful strike. Let’s see if Andrea Lee can emulate Maguire’s shot. Not far off. Sean Kim on number nine. Is it going to curl in? No. But a little more than a tap in for Sean to grab another birdie. as though she’s done exactly that inside of 25 ft or so for eagle for Charlie Hall. A little bit unlucky just catching the down slope. Bit of a back stop there that might feed it not quite back down. Oh, just like that. Good view of it there towards the kite surfers. It’s down there somewhere. Very good shot there. Giving herself a good chance to save power. carried it all the way but goes up that slop and up and then a bit of spin that it starts to feed back down. And here’s Andrea Lee on the 10th. That pins 20 on and just five yards from the left. And I don’t know why she didn’t like that one. I think she thought maybe that had gone a bit too far left, but little smile there. Perfect. Now, stabbed it up there and did so beautifully. Nice friendly pin even with the wind buffeting them you here. And she’s hit a a very nice shot indeed. She’ll have a chance to get into the red. Wonderful shot by Yang. [Applause] Can she get it just to this kin? We’ve seen quite a few go past it. They’re scared of leaving it short. Oh, look at this. That’s two beauties. [Applause] Very nicely done there from [Applause] use the wind coming enough. Caddy said go. It might have ballooned a bit on her. [Applause] Just a slither of fair weight down there if you can find it like Titakin has. So two of the green. Oh, nearly jams it in [Applause] off the back foot. A she just hit absolutely perfectly there. Not easy to get near this. Trish, she could not have played that one any better. Just landed it on the front. Took the sting out of it. Six ft short of the hole. Oh gosh. was not pleased with that, but going to get away with it for sure. It’s going to be the closest of the three. Here we are. The third shot at the third for Fuk. Oh, what a start of the tough tough park for third. That’s a real bonus. And a birdie put Lauren Cogland to get back to even [Music] Sorry, an eagle putt. [Applause] This is a soft feathery chopped shot there from Amy Yang. That is a wonderful wonderful T-shot top bunker just short right in car 315. Lovely sound to thump. Oh, beautifully played. [Applause] There she is. The club face wide open. Just wants to use the speed to get the ball up in the air and softly. Yeah, great shot. Even better. [Applause] Oh, Lee from 206. Perfect lie with a hybrid. Just need to get a little bit of fortune with the bunkers there. Oh, there’s fortune now. This could be wonderful. Come on, keep coming. Keep coming. Use your luck. You’ve always got to have a little bit of luck in that. Yeah, great shot. That was beautifully gauged there from Brooke. They’re having a very nice professional career. Hang on. Could we have another one? Very good shot. We’re about to reassess our AIG shot of the day. Yeah, there we go. Showstopper from Charlie Hall. Bold enough to get it there and not be on the hole. Beautiful. A day which really started so gently gave the opportunity for two players in particular to separate themselves from the rest. And now as the sun starts to sink here at Pall, we are only halfway and the chase is on tomorrow.

How have you barely shown any of the leaders?! Bogey free 7-under!
Instead of showing two tap in birdies. Why not show the approach shots that got them there?
Remarkable to shoot 65 on this course but let's see how she dates if wind picks up this weekend. Hope Thittikul can come good to win❤😊
I have been a stay at Home mom with no money in my IRA or any savings of my own, which was scary at 53 years of age. Two years ago I got a part time job and save everything I make. After 1 year, I am 56 yr and have put $9,000 in an IRA and $40,000 in my portfolio with CFA, Charlotte Parnell. Since the goal of getting a job was to invest for retirement and NOT up my lifestyle, I was able to scale this quickly to $150,000. If I can do this in a year, anyone can
Overall the highlights are much better than yesterdays’ (more shots and less putt putt). But I do wish they show more players.
