Rookie Miranda Wang Leads Weather-Delayed FM Championship at TPC Boston

Three stoppages have pushed completion to Saturday, leaving Nelly Korda at seven under with holes to finish.

Overview

  • Miranda Wang closed with three straight birdies to post 11-under 133 through 36 holes, sinking an 8–10 foot putt at 18 after a lengthy delay to take a two-shot lead.
  • Madelene Sagstrom shot a bogey-free 66 to reach nine under, with Hannah Green, Azahara Munoz and Celine Borge at eight under after completing their second rounds.
  • Second-round play was halted three times for rain and lightning before darkness; 24 groups resume at 7 a.m. Saturday, with plans for threesomes off both nines to regain schedule.
  • Nelly Korda, who opened with 67 after switching to a blade-style TaylorMade putter and new grip, is seven under through four holes of Round 2 after two early birdies.
  • Jeeno Thitikul carded 66 to reach seven under and, along with Green and defending champion Lauren Coughlin, jogged up the ninth to finish before the horn; Jodi Ewart Shadoff is seven under after a 72, and Allisen Corpuz sits at five under.
