LPGA 2021 - Gainbridge LPGA at Lake Nona: Lydia Ko holds her lead through Round 2
From Yahoo!Sports, Amy Rogers:
On Friday, the two-time major champion followed up an opening-round 65 with a 3-under 69 to maintain her lead at the Gainbridge LPGA at Lake Nona Golf and Country Club. In her season debut, Ko opened with an eagle at the par-4 first hole to jumpstart her eighth season on the LPGA.

Ko is a 15-time winner on the LPGA, with her last victory coming at the LPGA Mediheal Championship in 2018. Her struggles in recent years have been well documented, as she’s made a number of changes to her team, her equipment and her swing. But since connecting with instructor Sean Foley in 2020, Ko’s game has been more consistent. She gained 10 pounds in muscle and added 10 yards off the tee. In 2020, she recorded five top-10s after the tour returned from the hiatus due to the coronavirus pandemic, which included a runner-up finish at the Marathon LPGA Classic after a collapsing double-bogey at the 72nd hole.

Lydia Ko is now on 10-under, with Nelly Korda just behind on 9-under.
Sarah Kemp is on 5-under (as is Nelly Korda's sister Jessica), and Gabriela Ruffels on 1-under.
