Narin An scored eight birdies, including five in a row, for just one bogey this Friday.

Two French women were engaged this week in China and will be present for the weekend. Céline Boutier after a first round above par, score 71 (-1) to place herself in 36th position. Despite numerous bogeys, the French number 1 remains in the nails and will need a big day of golf on the moving day to get back on track. Agathe Laisné also crossed the Cut thanks to the same card of 71 (-1) this Friday. Starting her first round with a mixed 75 (+3), the player from Boulie fits perfectly into this Chinese event.
Lilia Vu, for the second consecutive week, is forced to abandon. She had signed a card in par on the first day. With a good end to the tournament, Céline Boutier can hope to get closer to the American in the world rankings.
A tie at the top!
