Making her LPGA Tour debut, Medina’s Melanie Green has made the cut at the Blue Bay Tournament at Hainan Island, China.

It has been an uphill battle for Green who has successfully rebounded from a near disastrous quadruple bogey 8 on the first hole of her opening round.

Rebounding, Green registered birdies on four of her final eight holes to finish her opening round at 1 over par 73.

Green then posted a 2 over par 74 on her second round for a two day total of 147 to make the cut by 1 stroke.

She had three birdies on her second round to help off set five bogies. Interestingly, one of those birdies came on hole No. 1 where she had the quadruple bogey on day one.

The tournament continues today and will conclude on Saturday (our time).
