Sei Young Kim has late birdie run to take Womenโs PGA lead
Kim birdied five of the final six holes as darkness fell Friday at Aronimink for a 5-under 65 and the second-round lead in the KPMG Womenโs PGA Championship. She tied Karrie Webb (2001) and Sarah Kemp (2011) for the lowest nine-hole score in the Womenโs PGA Championship. โThe birdie on 14 was pretty good because it was a long birdie putt, and thatโs when I started the four-birdie streak,โ Kim said. A 10-time LPGA Tour winner, Kim is looking for her first major victory. She was runner-up at the 2015 KPMG Womenโs PGA Championship and tied for second at the Evian Championship in 2018.
