Chun moves to top at Women’s British
In Gee Chun took the halfway lead at the Women’s British Open after a five-under 66 in the second round on Friday, putting her in position to challenge for a second major title of the year, and fourth overall.
Chun had an eight-under total of 134, putting her one shot ahead of Ashleigh Buhai and Madelene Sagstrom, who both shot 65.
Seven-time major winner Inbee Park was a shot further back after a 67.
Chun, who won the Women’s PGA Championship at Congressional in June despite consecutive weekend rounds of 75, carded six birdies and a solitary bogey in her round at Muirfield.
Kim co-leads PGA
Joohyng “Tom” Kim shot six-under 64 for a share of the lead with Brandon Wu and Ryan Moore at the Wyndham Championship.
Kim has to win to qualify for the FedEx Cup playoffs because he will not be considered a PGA Tour member until September when the new season starts. Only a victory gives him instant membership.
He made quadruple bogey on his first hole Thursday but has since made 14 birdies.
John Huh followed his first-round 61 with 71.
A storm late in the afternoon led to a delay that kept the second round from finishing.
Harrington eagles to lead Champions
Padraig Harrington made a long eagle putt on the final hole for a six-under 64 that gave him a one-shot lead over Kirk Triplett in the PGA Tour Champions’ Shaw Charity Classic.
