Suzanne Pettersen Leads After 2nd Round Of 2012 US Women’s Open; Michelle Wie, Cristie Kerr 1 Shot Back

Suzann Pettersen

A little late with this post, so I’ll keep this one brief. In fact, the leaderboard below at the end of the post already has players out for the 3rd round. That said, it was certainly an interesting 2nd round. This is a course that was seen to favor big hitters and two of them are hovering near the top of leaderboard, but found their way there with different recent histories. Suzann Pettersen continues to be a dominant force in women’s golf. It is no surprise to see her leading, nor would it surprise anybody if she held on to win. Her 2nd round 4-under 68 has her looking down on the rest of the field at 5-under. On the other hand, Michelle Wie has not had her best form in quite some time. She’s talented, no doubt about it, but has struggled in the past year or so. Will her 6-under 66 be the round that brings her back to showing the form that excited many in the golf world? We will see.
