Only 12 others, including Lexi Thompson and Angel Yin, were under par by the end of play on Thursday, while poor Alison Curdt, an LPGA and PGA Master Professional playing in her eighth PGA Championship, shot a 20-over par 92.
World No. 1 Nelly Korda carded a level par 72 to start round two four shots off those at the top of the leaderboard.
Projected cut at the 2025 KPMG Championship
As is standard for LPGA Tour events, along with the other four majors on the women’s circuit, there is a cut at the end of the second round on Friday (provided there are no weather delays).
The top 70 players and ties will make it through to the weekend, with the projected cut currently at +4. However, the cut line is likely to change during the course of Friday depending on how the action develops out on the course.
