LAST UPDATE | 6 Oct 2022
STEPHANIE MEADOW IS just two shots off the lead after an impressive start at the LPGA Mediheal Championship in California.
A four-under 68 keeps her well in contention behind the US leader Alison Lee who finished her opening round with a six-under 66. Atthaya Thitikul of Thailand and Danielle Kang of the USA are joint-second on five-under.
Meadow picked up one bogey and five birdies throughout her round, three of which came between the 12th and 15th holes.
Meanwhile, Séamus Power is also in an encouraging position after the first round of the Shriners Children’s Open in Las Vegas after carding a two-under 69 to leave him six shots behind American leader Tom Hoge.
The Waterford native grabbed back-to-back birdies on the 10th and 11th holes before picking up two more on the 14th and 16th holes. But a double-bogey on the third and a bogey on the eighth hole left a slight dent on an otherwise impressive display.
