The first two rounds have been determined at the 2021 Women’s British Open from Carnoustie, Scotland. There is currently a two-way tie for the lead as American Mina Harigae and England’s Georgia Hall are each at -7.
Harigae, who is a native of Monterey, California, and Japanese-American, posted a score of five-under-par 67 in round two, after a two-under-par 70 in round one. On Friday, Harigae had seven birdies and two bogeys, as she birdied the first, third, sixth, 12th, 14th, 16th, and 18th holes.
Hall meanwhile had a score of three-under-par 69 on Friday, after a first round score of four-under-par 68. In the second round, the Bournemouth native had six birdies, one bogey, and one double bogey. The double bogey came on the 15th hole as Hall was -9 at the time.
Hall is trying to win her second Women’s British Open. Her first title came in 2018, when she beat Pornanog Phatlum of Thailand by two strokes after posting a four-round score of -17 at Royal Lytham & St. Annes in Lancashire.
