the women’s US Open is taking place this week in North Carolina near Southern Pines. After two laps, Céline Boutier is currently in the top 30 of the event. After a first day looped in the par (71), the Frenchwoman offered herself this Friday a rich day of two birdies for two bogeys. The 17th player in the world signs a new card in par (71) and is currently ranked 27th.
Boutier is 9 shots behind on the head. Pauline Roussin-Bouchard, for her part, had another complicated day. The French returned a second card of 81 (+10) and did not pass the cut for her 2nd US Open.
64 (-7)
Like the best brand of the day. A performance achieved by Hye-Jin Choi which allows the South Korean to go up to 3rd place (-7).
Harigae is no longer alone
In front, there are two players in the lead. Already leader after the first round, Mina Harigae confirmed her status by returning a card of 69 (-2). With a total of -9, the American retains the lead but Harigae is no longer alone. Thanks to a second lap completed in 66 (-5), Minjee Lee is co-leader.
« The course can really punish you fast, explained the Australian. I just try to take every opportunity that comes my way. Whenever I have a birdie opportunity, I try to take advantage of it. »
