Jodi Ewart Shadoff is used to a whirlwind start. At the 2019 edition of the Women's Australian Open, the No. 87 in the world ranking started with a nice card of 65 before finishing in the 8e final place. This Thursday in Adelaide, in the southwest of Australia, it is a card of 66 (-7) devoid of any bogey which allowed him to take the lead alone, a blow in front of the South Koreans Jeongeun Lee6 and Inbee Park. “I love the course. My game is perfectly in place and I really hope to get the final victory ”, says the Solheim Cup player, who has never yet won on the LPGA Tour despite twenty top 10.

Among the two French entered in the tournament, Céline Boutier regained color after her failed cut last week at the Vic Open by returning a card of 70 (-3) with 6 birdies and 3 bogeys. Perrine Delacour is 53e at -1 (4 birdies, 1 bogey and 1 double bogey). The cut tomorrow should be around par.
