They maintained their spots atop the leaderboard at 16-under, tying the tournament’s 36-hole scoring record of 128 set by Jessica Korda in 2018 and matched by Patty Tavatanakit in 2021.
“Today’s tee shot, a little bit right and left couple holes, but good second shot from the rough to get to the green,” said said Hataoka after seting a 36-hole personal best.

Oh also shattered her personal best 36-hole mark of 132 that she had shot twice in 2021 when she tapped-in eagle on the final hole. She will co-lead into the weekend for the first time in her LPGA Tour career.
“My ball striking wasn't like, the impact wasn't very good today. I was just kind of scrambling really well out there,” said Oh. “I was like, come on, you want to hit some good shots before going into tomorrow. Such a long day, so I don't think I would want to hit balls after.”
