DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Jaye Marie Green pushed her lead to seven strokes Friday in the LPGA Tour qualifying tournament and Mi Rim Lee jumped to second with a course-record round.
The 19-year-old Green, from Boca Raton, birdied the final two holes for a bogey-free 6-under 66 on LPGA International’s Jones Course. She had a 20-under 196 total.
Lee, from South Korea, had a 61 to break the Jones Course record of 62 that Green set Wednesday. Tied for 25th entering the day, Lee had an eagle, 10 birdies and a bogey.
The top 20 after the final round Sunday will earn Category 12 status, Nos. 21-45 and ties will receive membership in Category 17, and the other players who make the 72-hole cut will get Symetra Tour status.
