Sergas leads Aussie Open; Thompson 7 back
MELBOURNE, Australia – Italy’s Giulia Sergas shot a 4-under 69 to take a three-stroke lead after the second round of the Women's Australian Open.
Sergas, who plays on both the European and LPGA tours, has a two-round total of 7-under 139 at the tricky par-73 Commonwealth Golf Club.
“I try to establish a little relationship with the golf course, try to talk to each other,” Sergas said. “If you listen well and you don't get caught up in your emotions, then the golf course really talks to you. And when it’s a difficult golf course like this one, you really have to pay attention.”
Two South Koreans are tied for second – Choi He-yong after a 69 Friday and Yang Soo-jin with a 72. Karrie Webb was in a group tied for fourth after a 70, four strokes back.
