Yuri Fudoh
Yuri Fudoh of Japan and Ji-Yai Shin of South Korea shot a 4-under 68 Friday to lead by one stroke and equal the halfway record at the Women’s British Open, while Annika Sorenstam’s 72 was just enough to make the cut.
Fudoh and Shin were at 10-under 134 to tie the record set by Jeong Jang of South Korea, who won three years ago at Royal Birkdale.
American Juli Inkster (70) was one shot back, while South Korean Bo Bae Song (68) and American Cristie Kerr (65) were two strokes behind the leaders.
Sorenstam stumbled over the front nine for the second day in a row, bogeying the fifth, sixth and seventh holes.
