THE rain came but did little to dilute their
cheap golf clubs determination as American golfers Stacy Lewis and Brittany Lang stole the thunder with a nine-under 133 total in the Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia at the Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club yesterday.
The second round came to an abrupt stop for two hours, but continued under the KLGCC floodlights before the ladies packed off to get dolled up again
Mizuno JPX 800 Irons for the official dinner.
Stacy fired a six-under 65 yesterday, while Brittany had four-under 67 to share the leaderboard.
One stroke adrift were Dewi Claire of the Netherlands and Choi Na Yeon of South Korea on eight-under 134 total.
Dewi had rounds of 66-68, while Choi also had identical scores to keep pace with the leaders.
World No 1 Yani Tseng of Taiwan put herself back
Mizuno MP-68 Irons in contention with a second round of four-under 67, and said she was looking forward to a full body massage after a hard day in office.
The pint-sized golfer had a 69 yesterday, but her three-consecutive birdies on the 12th, 13th and 14th made her among the golfers to watch, going into the weekend.
She is now tied sixth, on a two-round total on 136 -- just three strokes adrift of the leaders.
"I was just floating around as this is
Mizuno MP-53 Irons a very tough course with water at every hole.
"One can't make any mistake here (KLGCC), but everything changed after the string of birdies."
She birdied the 18th just in time before play was stopped temporarily due to bad weather.
It was just great timing, she said.
"I finished just at the right moment as I don't have
Mizuno MP-62 Iron Set to hang around the clubhouse.
"Now, I can go back to my hotel and have that full body massage that, oh I so need right now!"
Starting from the first tee, she had a round of six birdies, and the bogey holes were on the fifth and ninth.
