bogey, the sophomore responded with a birdie at No. 2, adding another at No. 6 to make the turn at 1-under par. She converted another bounce-back opportunity, erasing a bogey at No. 10 with a birdie at No. 11. A fourth birdie got her to 2-under on the round.
At that point, she was working on the round of the day until a triple-bogey at No. 16 dropped her back over par. For the fourth time in six tries this week, Kaur responded to a dropped shot with a birdie, one of two to close out her round at Nos. 17 and 18.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
