Keyed by a clutch run of four straight birdies, Medina’s Melanie Green posted a sparkling 5 under par round of 67 today to move into a tie for second place at the Epson Pro Golf Tour’s Four Winds Invitational at South Bend Indiana.
Green began the day 3 under par after Friday’s opening round of 69.
Starting on the back nine, she remained 3 under at the turn after posting a birdie on No. 11 and a bogey on No. 17.
However, Green turned things around in dramatic fashion on the front nine.
She erupted for birdies on 2, 3, 4 and 5 to go to 4 under on the day and 7 under for the tournament.
Keeping the momentum she also birdied her final hole of the day No. 9 to go 8 under for the tournament and finish with a 67 on the day.
Green now has a two day total of 136 which is 3 shots back of the leader heading into Sunday’s final round.
