[Music] And here we go. Gerling Kerr getting off to a fast start. This birdie putt on the first [Applause] and the Australian Steph Kiryaku went and made eagle on the sixth hole. How are you going to start well like this? Hitting that pit shot in there tight. So she’s moved to nine under par. Best round of the day so far is coming from H Jin Choy holding putts like that. And Hiju Kim here at the second go to into the lead. Yeah, this over at four for Jojo Kim. This is some touch, isn’t it? How many times have we seen her get up and down from various spots this week? She’s done it again here. Spectacular bunker shortsided herself onto a down slope. Nassa front pin here for Hatio. Plays 10 yards down the hill. Eight under par there. Sean Kim chip in a ball. Very nicely played. As Sophie said, it was a fairly very good place to leave. Easy little chip back up the green. And looking at this golf course, you have to take advantage of these par fives. So after a bogey on the fourth, birdie on six, she’s back to level park in the tie for the lead. Definitely trickier today. Uh the wind is definitely up. So I think that back nine is definely I think with it being in the trees, wind swirling around. He should come after a good little pitch from the left hand side. Mini leaderboard there showing that Chro has actually made another birdie. Five in a row for the player who’s 10th on the race to CME Globe right around that bubble. And here is Brook Matthews. She’s lying 62nd at the moment. So this would go a long way to help her move up there and solidify her in the top 60 to get in that CME. Yeah, she was in she chats away and Seong just kind of nods. Yeah, Takada grabs another twice a winner in the last 12 months. She thought she might need an operation, but thankfully that wasn’t the case. So maybe a little bit unexpected that she has uh got herself into this position. See Young just hits this a little bit to the right. Use that slope. Spin it back towards the hole. [Applause] She’s trying in career playing on the LPG tour. It’s the first time. Just a gap wedge here for Hoju. Downwind off the right. Nicely judged. You can hear that wind. You can see the flag flapping. Definitely windier than yesterday. On the ninth just 118 to the flag. Can attack this one. Try and get it in close. Yes. Well done. A two yesterday here for Kju Kip. Can she get a three today? [Applause] The answer is no. Just the one birdie between these three players so far in this group. Just not quite quite got going yet. The other Japanese players who are on tour, she’s not really played the JLPGA, so she’s come straight to America. Yeah, the other Japanese rookies like Teada we’re just seeing here, seasoned players in the JLPJ with lots of wins and a very nice shot there on number eight. An equal record seven rookie winners. Brook Matthews hoping to become the eighth. Hoping to not very well. You’ve got to take advantage of these lucky breaks sometimes. just inside left. Well done. And it’s funny how cautious sometimes fit your eyes. You’re saying she, you know, she won last year on the Japan tour at a place called Kowana Golf Club. I’d imagine 126 down the hill. Just a little kind of nudge with a wedge just left of the flag. You can see her just three quarter follow through trying to nearly just chip it down there. Fantastic. Capture after a big drive down the ninth. Just got a little flick in here. Beautifully done. Helping wind. The yell of get down. Oh, it did. Throwing darts. Yeah. gone down. She’s very solid over that length. They all go right in the middle. All aboard the birdie train. Three in a row. Should point that out. Let’s see if Hatoko can use the back stop potentially downhill. second into 10. [Applause] A lovely look down the ninth there. Just came up short to the bunker, opening up the the second shot for her. And they’re just peppering this flag stick here today. Yeah. the ball below your feet, the wind off the right, so it kind of evens each other out. Troy in the difficult part 414. This would be a bonus. Well, that’s how you bounce back after the drop shot at 13. Now, we haven’t seen her for much of today, but I get the feeling she’s hold a few of those. Just going to move a little bit from her left to right. I’ve seen a lot of players coming from the other side. Come on. You got to see these weeks as as that progression, haven’t you? You need to get inside that top 60, but you got a good few hits at it with these Asian events. Yeah, these greens rolling beautifully, I suppose, compared to last week as well. It must feel like you’re putting on such a perfect surface. and Taka moving through the gears here on day two with the signature player I suppose. Yeah, playing 195 yds. Pins just tucked in that back section. Wind off the right hand side and what a shot from Mi Lee. I’ve seen an awful lot of good shots into this ninth. Just probably a wedge for Hu. Oh, just needed some release. It’s at the top of the slope there. Change pattern, change carry. Same outcome. Oh, that’s good. Really good shot. Pin high. Got it into the bowl there on nine. Was on the walk straight away. So yeah, no drop shots but just the one birdie as a result two back as it stands. Although Sean Kim does have another birdie look coming here. Excellent front nine. Little slow to get going but out in 34 for the overnight leader. This is over at the 11th with Ha Oaka. So heading down the hill back uh towards the ocean. This run here 10 11 12 into the back nine. There seems to be a lot of birdies. Taka found the sand on 10. That’s from down the left hand side. What a great strike. Unbelievable shot that grass isn’t always greener. Well, it’s been working well for Rio Taka so far this week, but not quite behaved itself there. I sometimes find when I tried another putter, my original putter started behaving itself a little bit better. So Takader and Matthews both remain 11 under. One behind Sean Kim. It’s only a wedge here for Seyong can take the direct route to this back left pin. Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant there. Back up the hill a little bit here on nine on 10. Sorry. Good try. She wants to start perhaps making a few birdies. She’s know she’s got some tricky holes coming up. 14 15 doesn’t want to let Sean Kim get too far away. I know there is a long way to go, but she’ll know the quality. I prefer it down this left hand side. It opens up the pin. that wind from right to left. Well done there by Brook Matthews. Walks it in. Makes it look easy. Oh, what a chip in that is for Eagle there for Birdie there for Saki Barber. Smiles. She had a chip in yesterday at seven. Saw Saki Baba having a little chip in at 12. This 11 for Rio Takida. Nicely played. It’s a It’s a rare missed green. Well, it’s a good putt. Just not quite gone in this one. And a couple of inches from right to left for Matthews. Finds one. Great birdley there. Closes the gap to one again. Birdie on 10. Pard 11. Hatoko left to right. 12th hole. The pin position at the front means it’s not given away as many birdies. And that wind direction has changed. Yesterday down wind, today it’s more across. Yeah, you would. You can see that feet together, hands forward, playing it off the back. Nudge it forward. Nicely played. [Applause] Kim was very lucky not to catch the bunker. still hasn’t made a bogey at the BMW Ladies Championship and doesn’t make one there, but it will be testing Curtis. No problems either for Sean Kim off the UPS slope. Launched that one up in the air. Nicely done. Good birdie chance back down the hill. So, expect it to be deep at 97. Talked it ahead. [Applause] Another one that just raises the edge from her. Very likes staying aggressive. Ball’s getting past the hole. She’s not tentative. Taka outside left here for her birdie on 12. Oh, just lacks some pace. You feel like you were saying with the stats, Katrina, that you’ll highlight I need to get better from 100 to 120 yards. Kim just was fortunate to stay short of this bunker. Got 90 yards to the front. 99 pin. No issue. Got that for Birdie. Looked like he was just going to miss to the right, but dead weighted it and as a result caught that right edge. stay within three. Timely birdie keeps her in the conversation. Even if you finish last would be a nice little Christmas present. End of the season. 4 million for the winner. Wedging tight there on the final hole. Chin Choy has been frustrated the last hour or so. Matthews next to go in this group. Plays a couple of yards up the hill. So this is 135 number below the hole. The place to be. Yes, the very wide fairway is generous. Attack it up ahead. Just hitting her second shot. Lovely shot there. Got it all the way back. A speedy putt. Hang lie here for Hoju. Mid iron. Keeping that one safely below the hole. It’s going to switch back out the north. Both just not quite wanting to attack that pin. As we saw, you certainly don’t want to go long. Leaves yourself a very quick chip. Here’s Lindy Duncan. Not seen a huge amount of her today. See if she can get a good shot in here. Get one of those shots back that she’s dropped. Oh, very nice. See this aiming up the left. It’s going to swing off that slope from the bunker on the left. [Applause] one of those weeks so far. Sean Kim, this is a rather more straightforward although quick one for Sean Kim. Nicely done. significantly turned things around since then. This is up on the green 16. A fast chip there. That one nearly. She can hit that fade easy, but off a downhill slope. She just makes sure it stays left. Matthews, by the way, made her par here at 16. Released that one, didn’t she? Sean is the heart of the green. winning the tournament. They’ll be thinking about where they are in that CME race. 100%. That was epic there from NASA Hatoko. She’s got that to get to 12 under part. Needs to stay in posture here. Keep those knees flexed. Yes. And well done. Well played. Going to have a very similar eagle try to lay me. No. Just that extra three or four yards. Managed to keep it on the green. Found the green side bunker in two. Brooke Matthews at 17. That was superb shot. Very well played. Nearly off the down slope. Had to throw it up quickly. can see her trying to get it going left. Oh, well, you called it, Katrina. Long is decent here. She held the line on that club face. Yes, she’s just This is bread and butter for her. Just going to slide this lob wedge under. just landed that probably a good two three yards short of where she was wanting. And they’re all just trying to catch her, aren’t they? Teada taking the flag out there on 18. Birdies are needed. Rick Matthews caught the bunker here off the 18th T. A lovely shot out into the heart of the green. [Applause] got high enough up the slope to come back down. [Applause] Crowd always love a little bit of back skin even though that was helped by the contours. went the other way, didn’t it? Just a misread. She hit it exactly where she wanted, just right, and it just drifted right. Well, how about this start? 62 66. That’s why she’s leading at this BMW Ladies Championship. 16 under
