"Not a bad number" - Indian golfer Aditi Ashok on her progress at the LPGA LA Championship

Aditi Ashok topped the leaderboard after the second round of the JM Eagle LA Championship. She played in the first round of the 66 and then played a round 70 in the second round.

Aditi made an eagle and four birdies in the second round to top the leaderboard. Speaking about her performance, the Indian golfer said:

"We were almost trying to hit the next wedge because there's water short of the green, but I decided to hit that one a little more full, and we got the number exactly right because it landed in the hole, so we're like, OK, maybe it's not a bad number."

She added:

"I think five or six birdies around this place is pretty good for a round, but just trying to focus on not dropping as many shots. I think I bogeyed three par-threes, so maybe just focus on hitting the middle of the green on the par-threes and staying in position."

The LPGA JM Eagle LA Championship is scheduled to wrap up with the final round on Sunday, April 30. Hannah Green is tied for second place with Cheyenne Knight and Pernilla Lindberg.

Alison Lee secured third place with a score of under 4 alongside Linnea Strom, Sarah Kemp, and Alison Lee.
