Swedish golfer Dani Holmqvist maintains lead as championship Sunday approaches at ShopRite LPGA Classic
Dani Holmqvist, the second-round leader of the ShopRite LPGA Classic, holds the lead with a score of -11. She played the first round of 64 and stunned people with a score of 67 on Saturday, June 10.
She maintained one stroke lead over Hyo-Joo Kim followed by Ashleigh Buhai. Atthaya Thitikul secured the fourth position after finishing with a score of under seven.
Dani Holmqvist told the media after the second round:
“You know, it's always some nerves and stuff, but it was nerves in a good way, because it's a position you really want to be in, we work hard to be in."
Speaking about the final round, she said:
"Just try and stay in my own bubble and picture the flights and just fall in love with those and just try and execute as good as I can.”
She went on to add:
“Well, I hope it turns out better than it did that time. You know, I think there are so many good and talented players in this field, and it's going to be low scores (tomorrow). Only thing I can do is try to do the best that I possibly can, and hopefully that's enough.”
