On Thursday, No. 1 of the World Nelly Korda found trouble from the blouse – she even had to change her shoes in between — and went straight into contention after her opening round of 73 at the US Women’s Open. How about Friday? She may have understood. Korda’s four-under 67 was the lowest round of the day and put him right back in the mix at Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, California. Here’s what you need to know about Saturday.

While Korda’s 67 was the best round of the day, several players, including Alison Lee, shot 68. Lee made just one bogey and shares the 36-hole lead with Ruoning Yin. Tied at four under, the pair will play in the final pairing at 5:45pm ET on Saturday.
“I feel like I did a really good job of making a good job, saving a lot of pars,” Lee said. “I mean, even today on hole 2, I pushed my drive to the right and I had to punch out. I was able to make like a 6-footer for about 100 yards. It’s shots like that, holes like that that I feel like really make or break for the week.”
American Jennifer Kupcho is three under and one off the lead and Korda is among a group of contenders at two under.
Michelle Wie West, playing in her final US Women’s Open through her 10-year ban from winning the No. 2 at Pinehurst in 2014, shot 75-74 to miss the cut.
