Nelly Korda up first. She safely finds the centre of the green, pin high from 200 yards with a hybrid. The putt will be from around 30 feet, but a half-decent birdie chance nonetheless. Emily Pedersen has to respond, and does so by sending Europe’s second over the flag. The ball rolls apologetically into the fringe, but doesn’t topple down the bank; that would have been a cruel outcome for such a fine shot. Europe are left with a birdie putt of about 20 feet. The first putting contest of the day coming right up!
Carlota Ciganda takes the opening shot of the second day … and sends Europe’s ball into the big bunker down the right of the fairway. That’s not ideal, but neither is it the worst place to be. Allisen Corpuz, to wild cheers orchestrated by her parter Nelly Korda, larrups confidently down the fairway. Another magnificent atmosphere in the grandstands, which this morning look a lot fuller than early doors yesterday, the shuttle buses hopefully running on time now.
