In Orlando and the defending Champion Brook Henderson at the ninth hole for birdie to tie the lead here in round two and Lydia Co she’s just two points away from the LPGA Hall of Fame each viory worth a point that Eagle at the ninth ties Lydia for the lead look back
Of the green today but the wind is helping down this hole it’ll change your wind direction from yesterday Stark says she loves it here in Florida loves the grasses the swed who played collegiately at Oklahoma State runner up to Brook Henderson in her first appearance here last
Year just a moment ago at 10 Lydia well this was uphill and it should want to move left oh how did that not go in that looks like it’s a leaner right there good stroke and you have to think that Lydia’s riding Alexa Pano is to get to
Five under par for the day which would be the lowest score out there and that looks really good wow that looked good for a long time really good role there so she remains at seven under par tied for the lead and while we have a moment let’s
Head up to our booth with Morgan and Grant 89 yard is all she has again spin control for a yaka very important on the shot I think she needs to get something going right here off to a slow start today this could be just what she needs
And cadd saying trust it see if she can get it all the way back it is playing is the hardest hole today was one of the easiest holes yesterday but the change in hole location on that back right been quite a challenge but I love what Jason told her
There just trust it it’s the most important thing stableford scoring obviously the further you are around the course the more chance of uh being up on the leader board with more points Stark for a birdie hated it right away you never really have to guess watching Maya you you know exactly what
She’s thinking pretty much the second the ball comes off the face started to to work for her not this time she’s relied on that club quite a bit for her success coming close to winning on a number of occasions last season on the LPGA Tour and and she’s
Struggled to find a replacement for a while this was Gabby Lopez at the 10th oh Beauty you know it’s interesting you think about a Potter maybe somewhat this is Nelly quarter at the 17th good four under par within three of the lead like that aggressive [Applause] stroke third for
Lydia not an easy bunker shot Tom but if anybody can do it it’s Lydia but that’s just landed a bit too softly and it’s not going to get down that slope yeah she does and she’s got the carry over that grassy bunker that’s in front of
Her too but this will kick to the left so you can use that slope but she’s been aggressive yeah just took it out of play went straight at it all right here is Gabby for birdie at 10 winner of this event in 2020 across town over at 14 Alexa Pano was long with
Her second Pitch to he oh that stings doesn’t it 14 you said yeah you can’t give up a shot here on the 14th back the 13th hole with rose Jang for her birdie so finding a putter that she’s comfortable with and that works has been a big uh task for her I
Outa food away at the 10th looking just outside left still looking for a first birdie Morgan today yeah just hasn’t as we said hasn’t really heated this putter up and putting makes all the difference it really I me you look at hot rounds home run hitter to Lydia Cole at the 12th
Well this is from 145 quite heavily downwind and that was pretty uh good looking line right there she’s standing really close to the ball almost looking to have somewhat of a putting technique but she scooped it got underneath it at the 15th this is the fourth shot
Here for Alexa Pano she went into the water with her second they’ve moved the te up at the 15th so players are going for the green and two and she may get away with the par there that flag stick is moving around a good bit always distracts me is it a bit
Windy out there no I think you’re just catching just a hair of a gust but seems pretty calm on this scen right now well that won’t feel great I’m not sure that she’s going to go back to straight away where she was in 22 but I
Expect to make her to make inos in that and maybe the following year really come out on fire again but she’s really committed to improving upon what happened last year cheyen Knight at the always tough 16 not that hard okay second straight birdie be a good save at the 15th for
Alexa Pano having been in the penalty area yeah well done there is a bit of dry ground in the penalty area to the left of the green so you we could see over the weekend a player playing it out of there I think really gives her
Something to really build on and this is as good a shot as I’ve seen her play in a while I think that the fact that she beautiful shot there that that she committed to spending the off seon here says a lot they are soft it’s working in her favor it’s
Magnificent yes spun it back off the green and Morgan talked about hitting a fairway metal off around these edges of green and this has been an excellent judge of pace yeah that’s something that you really have to practice in order to have that type of a touch that to 12 Ali
Ying oh look at that pitch mark no not going to be so it is going to be a drop shot she was saying that she’s been struggling with the quick hooks this week that kind of came out of nowhere having been working hard on her golf swing back in Sweden
Mve maybe not as much trust there Karen no when they C that short then you know you’re just trying to fiddle something in there as opposed to really given a good rooll it’s a parut here at the par 5 11 for Foodway up the hill yeah works hard with uh cadd as sister
And her father as well who’s her coach on over at the 16th this is Alexa Pano one of 13 players who won for the first time last year on the LPGA Tour won on her 19th birthday in Northern Ireland in a playoff seeing the last couple players confused on the read here
Little tentative there from Ally all right Lydia is going to have a birdie Putt in a moment finishing up at 18 Jimma dror won in Japan a couple of Octobers ago November ago with no cane no cane those were not enough details for Tom Tom wants to know like dat time location oh
Dear have you ever played Lake Nona before I have and I battled it out with Nelly and unfortunately I lost yeah here for the gainbridge noticed right I’ve noticed especially on the so of team and so does Lydia she’s pretty good this was a moment ago at
14 thinking that you’re going to get any Back Spin on it because there’s nowhere to land it past the hole [Applause] that’s some good distance control no unfortunately not you just say forget it just do your own thing really yeah well fortunately or unfortunately oh I don’t know it depends
On the situation but I still do look cuz you know as a player you want to see if you can take any advantage you possibly can cuz gol is really hard sometimes backfires sometimes it helps but most of the time I try not to look another bogey put for
Pano okay so she’s going to drop back to five under par couple behind that’s kind of the the Difference Maker Now for Anica with her golf Maya Stark on the T at 13 well she’s got enough power that she can create the spin to control it in this back
Portion yeah there’s the difference there between those two players Paige for a birdie could be watching it closely putting from similar part of the green for her par and one of the brand ambassadors that’s right she represents hen Grand V as does anuka it’s been pretty bad I think up
There now food away at the 13 good touch she might be able to play it but the way that it went in at that angle seems unlikely third shot for p at 18 yeah what up since you got a little caught up in the results in the rankings last
Year this is an important put just had a rough back nine three Bogies on the back nine not what she wanted after such a fabulous front but good solid putt there at the end for a par back at the 15th this is the third for Brook Henderson from a really tight lie here
Tom is downwind at the moment you did pretty well from that tight Li then Karen give yourself an opportunity bear in mind that it’s set a taste for an eagle already [Applause] today some good touch there she’s had a few putts what 12 13 and now on 15 that were good
Opportunities the other two were for par but just couldn’t quite get them to go in I guess the one on 14 as well one didn’t have quite as good of a chance to go in yeah get up and [Applause] down short par 44th tied with Lydia aaka boot
Away and after a good drive just 108 yards remaining to this back hole location but it’s hard to get to a back hole location when we got backin and there you can see how much the wind affected that one too you don’t want to be long to that at the 16th this
Is NASA Hoka hey there go well she’s due to get back in the winter Circle this year isn’t she yeah NASA’s got a new putter in the bag this week so that’s how much wind is up there it’s a good club and a half more than what I expected her to
Play here from this yardage left us an upill SE a few players miss this a little bit left here just enough oh it she didn’t like it cuz she shoved it right off the putter face but it’s in the bottom of the hole now third shot on the par for
16th for Brook and even though this is a tight line she can be aggressive because it is into the up slope to the other side of the GOL of course players finishing up at the ninth including Charlie Hull who’s played well today and is to shoot six under today
Yeah bounce back Charlie’s been struggling with a bit of food poisoning which she uh suffered a few weeks ago she’s had some chances on the back it just look like she didn’t strike that well yeah maybe a touch tentative there and really has found something in her game
But she certainly has continued that tremendous play that’s a good shot really good tap in and she said it just kept going she said I didn’t sit down but for 10 minutes I mean and and they go all night they go till they likees for breakfast and uh the next morning yeah
Reports with it l Ooa yeah well done not easy going to be difficult to judge the pace here to an elevated green and it slopes away at the end she’s going to be disappointed with her iron play today she’s missed half of her green so far on the back nine so
Uncharacteristic but look at this yeah good call Karen shipping it in and that’s a little bonus for [Applause] Brooke yeah good part that club working once again so kway takes the lead good three in the end disappointed she didn’t walk away with a two unlike Brook Henderson she’s Daniel K on the te
At the 17th just a moment ago tough day today Daniel Kang and that will make her just a little bit happier that was quite the advantage for players who played earlier and who are already done can hear the music blaring from the DJ what a shot this is from Lydia oh
That was beautiful she controlled that trajectory kept it under the wind Chim dri and Padre a RAR the only two birdies at 18 today Lydia has a shot he talk about how difficult it is make 30 17 Daniel Kang making it look easy back up here towards this hole it’s
Going be moving left to right once it hits the [Applause] Green that was a beautiful shot just wonderful Rhythm to her pitching motion I think that she’s been a player that has played good enough golf to have been number one this is her fourth shot so she’s going to steal one at 17 for birdie after the pitch in she’ll drop one here at
18 but in good position heading to the weekend she won wire to wire last year there you go a birdie three for Lydia Co just the third of the day at the 18 ah what a way to end and and should the leader board end as it does go course there has been
In really good condition and they did a big irrigation project here about 4 years ago and that was paid off today with the rain we had overnight just wouldn’t even know of course drains very well going to be a three for foot away and she will stay tied for the [Applause]
Lead coached by her father back in Japan

Having a good time watching a prospect win it all
Terrible 'highlights' package. Surely this isn't an official LPGA site
Some greens seem sticky creating a little more resistance on the ball.
Go Lydia Go…👏👏👏
Ayaka! Show us your talent and spirit.
