Charley Hull within two of leaders at ANA Inspiration
Sunday 3 April 2016 00:31, UK
Charley Hull is two shots behind joint leaders Lexi Thompson and Ai Miyazato after a splendid round on the second day the ANA Inspiration.
The Kettering-born 20-year-old fired in two birdies and an eagle in a round of 69, leaving her two shots off the lead.
It was a bad day for Scotland's Catriona Matthew who slipped down the leaderboard after an even-par round. Matthew had been a shot off the pace after the opening round.
Thompson joined overnight leader Miyazato on seven-under carded five birdies, including three in a row on the back nine, in a four-under-par 68.
Miyazato did not enjoy such a fruitful second round but her 70 was enough to keep her joint top of the leaderboard at the halfway point of the first major of the year.
There are six players in the hunting pack a shot back on six-under, including world number one Lydia Ko and Solheim Cup competitor Suzann Pettersen.
