Nelly Korda is the sole leader of the LPGA Drive On Championship! Co-leader from the first round at -6 alongside New Zealander Lydia Ko, the American took sole control of the event. Thanks to a card of 67 (-4) and a solid approach game (16 greens hit in regulation), Nelly Korda is two strokes ahead of the Korean So Mi Lee.

Lydia Ko is relegated to third position at -7, helped in the second round by her putting: only 29 putts. At her side we find the Japanese Ayaka Furue who finishes her second day strong with six birdies over the last two thirds of the course.

Céline Boutier moves up the rankings before the weekend. Ranked 25th after the first round, the French number 1 moved up to 12th place thanks to a card of 68 (-3). Starting from the 10th, Boutier started perfectly with three birdies on her way before making a double bogey on her 12th hole. She ends her game with two birdies to end her day at -4. The Frenchwoman is still in the race to defend her title.
