“I hit a lot of great shots today. I just didn’t – the putter wasn’t as good as it was yesterday, but certainly I’m striking the ball well. I’m driving the ball well. I don’t see why I can’t move right up the leaderboard tomorrow.” – Tammie Green

Green, who had the grabbed the first-round lead with a 5-under-par 68, got to six under par through six holes on Friday but played four over from there in for a 76. Still, she’s in the hunt. Alfredsson is going to have a lot of company around the top of the leader board in Saturday’s third round, and many of them are familiar names she’s been tussling with for decades.
