KITCHENER, Canada: Norways’ Suzann Pettersen fired a bogey-free seven-under 65 to seize a share of the lead with Mariajo Uribe atop a crowded leaderboard after the second round of the LPGA Tour’s Manulife Classic.
Pettersen missed just three fairways and hit every green to sit tied with Uribe, who shot a bogey-free round of 66. The duo shares the lead heading into the weekend at 13-under 131.
“I think if you hit all the fairways, you’re going to give yourself a lot of chances with your irons, so I tried to be aggressive,” said Pettersen, who posted seven birdies, including four on the back nine.
“The par fives are very scoreable — you’ve just got to try and take care of business on those — and if you can squeeze in a birdie or two or three on the rest of the holes, you’re in good position.”
