PAJU, South Korea — Rain on Friday washed out much of the second round of the BMW Ladies Championship in South Korea, with no players able to finish their rounds.
Australia’s Hannah Green, South Africa’s Ashleigh Buhai and South Korea’s Jenny Shin led after Thursday’s opening round with 8-under 64 scores at Seowon Valley Country Club.
Green continued atop the leaderboard and was 4 under after nine holes — 12 under for the tournament — before play was suspended. Buhai was two strokes behind at 10-under, and after nine holes.
The second round will be completed on Saturday before the start of the third round. Rain is still unknown in other competitions that are expected to wrap up on Sunday.
The field is loaded with eight of the LPGA Tour’s top 10 players. It also includes 17 of 18 wins this season on tour. About the only key player absent is American Nelly Korda, who withdrew due to a neck injury.
