Miyu Yamashita fires a 2-under 70 to share the lead after the second round of the FM Championship at TPC Boston – the Japanese star picks up right where she left off last week. She is now at a staggering 9-under 135, sharing the top spot with Hyo Joo Kim and Allisen Corpuz. What a run!
Canadian Dominance Extended
Fresh off her trip from Canada, where she won the CPKC Women’s Open in Edmonton by an incredible nine-stroke lead and tied the LPGA's 72-hole record, Yamashita leaves no doubt about her top form. Already in Canada, she laid the groundwork for her triumph with an 8-under 62 in the first round. This confidence has carried directly over to Boston.
The Battle for TPC Boston
Although Sei Young Kim set the pace with an 8-under 64 on Thursday, and Yamashita started Friday just one stroke behind her, she remained unfazed. Even a double bogey on the par-3 eighth in the first round couldn't stop her. On the contrary, she responded with a back nine where she holed seven birdies in eight holes – a statement that left her competitors trembling.
Miyu Yamashita's hot streak is thus in full swing across two LPGA events. The weekend now promises a true showdown among top players, and Yamashita is right in the thick of it, ready to claim her next victory.
