OTSU, Japan (AP) — Japanese golfer Nasa Hataoka and Shin Ji-yai of South Korea sat atop the leaderboard Friday after the second round of the LPGA’s Toto Japan Classic.
Hataoka shot a 4-under 68 and Shin was in with a 67 for two-round totals of 11-under 133. Miyu Yamashita of Japan, who shared the lead with Hataoka after the first round, was a stroke back of the leaders after a 69 at the Seta Golf Club in western Japan.
Three more Japanese golfers were only two strokes off the lead: Sayaka Takahashi (67), Ai Suzuki (67) and Shuri Sakuma (66).
Defending champion Rio Takeda of Japan was nine shots behind after a second-round 69.
Minjee Lee of Australia, among the best-known players in the field, shot 1-over 73 and was eight shots off the lead.
