Overnight co-leaders Nasa Hataoka of Japan and Australian Su Oh continued their bogey-free play at the Honda LPGA Thailand with matching 65s on the Old Course.

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.”

France’s Celine Boutier, who is of Thai descent with family in the gallery, and Denmark’s Nanna Koerstz Madsen are tied for third at 15-under. China’s Xiyu Lin rounds out the top five at 14-under, with American Jennifer Kupcho and Canada’s Brooke Henderson tied for sixth at 12-under.

Defending champion Ariya Jutanugarn bounced back from a first-round 74 with a 4-under 66 and enters the weekend tied for 48th at 4-under overall, 12 strokes off the lead.

Play was suspended at 2:05 p.m. due to lightning in the area and resumed at 3:47 p.m. All players finished their rounds.
