Key Quote
"Chantal helped the cause this morning with those birdies on 17 and 18, and Celine played steady all day," head coach Erika Brennan said. "Kate got round two started with nine-straight pars, so that momentum should fuel her into tomorrow. The team hit a lot of great shots today, but we will need to back that up with better putting tomorrow. We're looking forward to the challenge!"
