Moving up into the top 10, Medina’s Melanie Green posted a second round score of 2 under par 70 today to gain a share of sixth place at the LPGA Tour’s Mizuho Americas Open Tournament being played at West Caldwell, New Jersey.
Green, who posted an even par round of 70 to open the tournament on Thursday, moved up 31 spots in the standings with her 2 under par round.
Starting on the front nine, Green got off to a strong start notching birdies on 3, 4 and 8 to go to 3 under and gain a tie for fourth place.
However, back-to-back bogeys on 10 and 11 set her back a bit to 1 under but she rebounded with a birdie on 13 to finish the day at 2 under and easily make the cut.
The tournament will continue on Saturday and conclude on Sunday.
