Singapore: Thailand’s Eila Galitsky and Sophie Han of Hong Kong joined overnight leader Kim Min-Sol of South Korea on top of the leaderboard at the halfway stage of the Women’s Amateur Asia-Pacific (WAAP) championship yesterday.
In the second round at Singapore Island Country Club, 16-year-old Eila (67) and 15-year-old Han (68) played in the morning and made the most of the favourable conditions with solid rounds.
Eila was on song with her wedges, while Han’s putter was red-hot as they set the marker in the clubhouse at eight-under-par 136, matched later in the day by Kim (69).
South Korea’s Lim Ji-Yoo shot the round of the day, a bogey-free eight-under-par 64, matching the championship record for the lowest round held jointly by Thailand’s Kan Bunnabodee and Australia’s Becky Kay.
Ten shots better than her opening round, Lim moved up the leaderboard to tied…
