Mistake-free Ciganda bolts to a share of Las Vegas lead
The Straits Times
|April 06, 2024
South Korea's Kim Sei-young, Spain's Carlota Ciganda and Americans Angel Yin and Rose Zhang shared the lead after the second day of stroke play at the LPGA Matchplay tournament on April 4.
-
The revamped format for the event at Shadow Creek in Las Vegas features three rounds of stroke play with the top eight advancing to weekend matchplay.
Ciganda fired a bogey-free five-under 67 to seize a share of the lead on four-under 140 with Yin (68); Zhang (73), and first-round leader Kim (74).
"I've been hitting lots of greens and that's key at Shadow Creek," Ciganda said. "If you can hit fairways and greens and avoid those bogeys, those mistakes, I think it's big.
"And my putting was working. I made some good putts, five birdies, no bogeys, so very happy."
Ireland's Leona Maguire and Japan's Minami Katsu each fired 69 to share fifth on 141, while Japan's Yuka Saso (74) and England's Jodi Ewart Shadoff (68) were two shots further back.
