Jessica Korda, 2018 LPGA scoring average leader, is +6 and missed the cut.
Golf is irrational; anything can happen in one hole, one round or one tournament.
Jessica's mistake was to shoot +5 on day 1 and had to take risks on round 2. US Open usually doesn't reward players who play with chances.

The favorites to win have to be Ariya, Inbee or Michelle.
Michelle has that determined look that she won't be denied.

Nasa Hataoka is sitting pretty at even, she equaled Ariya and So Yeon and shot the best split round 2 of -2.
Nasa is the twice defending champion of Japan Women Open, she's no stranger to winning national championship.

The forecast is for clear sailing into the night; Round 3 completion seems certain.
There's a small thunderstorm possibility for Sunday afternoon, wonder tee time may be moved up tomorrow.

Really good finish for So Yeon. With her minus two second round, she moved within a couple of strokes of the top five.
Jin Young had a couple of early birdies to get to plus one. But three bogeys later, left her with having to par eighteen, to make the cut. It was a scary situation, since she made bogey on the easier par five seventeen.
I really am surprised that Jessica didn't make the cut. I thought that the first round was a fluke. That she would get under par at least the second round.

The last group won't be out until around 3:30 PM EDT and won't finish until 8:30 PM.
Fox is scheduled to broadcast 2-7 PM; will they move the broadcast to Fox 1 after 7:00 PM?

In Gee is paired with Brittany Lincicome and Hye Jin Choi; 1:29 PM CDT from tenth tee.
In Gee played well when paired with Brittany; so hope she'll shoot her best round of the week.
