Lim has hit 28 of 28 fairways and is the only player in the field to go bogey-free through the first two rounds at LPGA International Busan.

“I’m a player that needs to start off well. So I really focus on my first and second holes. And I think once you play well in your first two holes, then you’re at an ease for the following holes. So I think that worked well today. And in terms of the course itself, I think we can get an opportunity to snatch many birdies here. So I tried to aim for that. So I tried to work on my shot. ”

An, who led overnight following a first round 64, made her first birdie of four at the 6th and notched one lone bogey for the day the 8th.

“Actually I did have some birdie chances in the beginning; however, I misread the break, and that led to some missed s hots. However, in hole 6 and 7, I was to read the break well, and I think that worked well altogether.”

Major champions Kang (68) and In Gee Chun (69) are for third place at 10-under. Chun started wekk with three birdies in her first four holes, but struggle with windy conditions on the back nine, carding two bogeys and two birdies through her final six holes.

“I missed two short putts. I always try to make bogey-free round. That’s my goal. So next two days I’m trying t o make bogey-free round again and trying to make birdie as much as I can,” said Chun, who has recorded 34 rounds in the 60s, leading the LPGA Tour this season.

Jin Young Ko recovered from her 71 on Thursday to tie Kang (2019) and An’s (2021) 18-hole record of 64 and lies solo fifth place at 9-under.

“So yesterday it was raining. So that made the play very tough. But the weather was much better today,” said Ko. “I think I was able to play well. But yesterday I didn’t play as well as I had expected. However, today I started off in 10, so I think that kind of relieved my pressure as well. So my swing went well, my putting went well, and overall that made me able to snatch many birdies.”
