TROON, Scotland (AP) --- South Korea's Jenny Shin led the Women's Scottish Open
by five strokes after two rounds at Dundonald Links on Friday.
Shin started the second round with a bogey and shrugged it off with six
birdies, including on her final hole, for a 5-under 67. She's at 11 under
overall.
Shin was co-leader with American Lauren Coughlin on 6 under after day one of
the tournament co-sanctioned by the Ladies European Tour and LPGA Tour. But
Coughlin, who won the Aramco Championship in April and the Scottish Open in
2024, hit 2 over on Friday and dropped to 4 under and a tie for fourth with
Japan's Erika Hara.
The closest to Shin was German golfer Esther Henseleit, who carded 4-under 68
with two birdies and an eagle.
South Korea's A Lim Kim remained at 5 under and in third place after an even
par round with two birdies and two bogeys.
Sweden's Anna Nordqvist shot 7 over to drop from a tie for fifth to just above
the cut line on 5 over.
