Karrie Webb eyeing to dismantle her opponents at LPGA Thailand
Karrie Webb scored a hole at the 12th spot that helped her to forge a two-shot lead after the second round at the rain-shortened LPGA Thailand tournament.
With a cumulative score of 7-under 65 in round two in order to acquire a leading position against former world number Jiyai Shin.
At that time, she showed a score of 66 and compatriot South Korean Amy Yang ended up her game less-8 after she was able to play 14 holes on the course.
Winner of the competition in 2007, Norway's Suzann Pettersen (67) is trying to make her mark after she has been encompassed as a part of a group of three golfers, who have so far been able to clinch the minus-seven spot.
On the other hand, defending champion Yani Tseng (65) leads in turn a group that is found at six under par.
Among the leading race, another major contender for the event remains first round winner, Ai Miyazato, who has yet to play five holes.
Webb along with 13 other golfers will now get the opportunity to tee it off at the Siam Country Club's Pattaya Old Course.
The Australian golfer has been able to secure a stable position in the event since 2008.
With the help of seven major titles coupled with recorded birdies from the sixth to ninth hole, she succeeded the fifth hole in one of her career on a par-12 of 159 yards.
Her performance continued to rule the course, despite the bogey that she recorded at the 13th hole.
This was later followed by another birdie that she teed off for the next hole. Thus till the end of day’s play, she had a handsome score on the board.
According to experts, there is no doubt about the fact that Webb’s performance has been flawless, but at the same time she needs to bear in mind the competitive context of the game.
The 37-year-old golfer has to face contenders like Yani Tseng, who is in complete momentum to defend her title.
At the same time Michelle Wie, the American golfer with her 1 under position, will also provide her with a tough time.
