Great round by Kotone Hori seven birdies two bogeys, tied for second place right now.
Yui Kawamoto had five birdies but four bogeys.
Hopefully she will have a great Final round for a change.
Kudos, to Living Legend Yuri Fudoh another minus one to make the cut.

Kotone Hori shows what happens if you believe in yourself and keep fighting.
It was a struggle for her to get out of the Step-Up Tour but she didn't give up.

Low am Rin Yoshida (-8) ... when she turns pro, she'll become Yoshida Two
Yuri Yoshida ... or the future Yoshida One
Hori Two
Yui (-4) and Serena Aoki (E)
Rumi Yoshiba (-5)

Another great Tournament by Kotone Hori one off the lead.
Yui Kawamoto had another five birdies four bogey round.
For the Tournament she had fourteen birdies but also had ten bogeys.
She needs to start hitting more greens, missed twenty for the Tournament.
However she averaged twenty seven putts, so her short game is good.
