Successfully making the cut, Medina’s Melanie Green carded a 3 under par round of 69 today at the LPGA Tour’s Standard Portland Classic at Portland, Oregon.

Green now has a two day total of 4 under par 140 after posting a 1 under par round of 71 on Thursday to open the tournament.

Beginning the day on the front nine, she notched four birdies on 5, 7, 8 and later on 12 to go as much a 5 under. However, her lone bogey of the day on 15 ended up leaving her at 3 under for the day and 4 under for the tourney.

Interestingly, 6 of the 8 birdies she has made over the first two days have come on the front 9.

She is currently 8 shots back of the leader who is at 12 under with some golfers still on the course.

The tournament will continue on Saturday and then conclude on Sunday.

This is the first LPGA Tournament of the season for Green who has been playing full time on the Epson Pro Tour. She currently leads the Epson Tour in points and has already locked up an LPGA Tour Card for 2026.

She earned a spot in the Portland Classic  field by winning a qualifying tournament on Monday by posting an 8 under par round of 64 to win by three shots.
