For a player who admits she's really only playing for the experience, Lydia Ko sure is making the most of it.
The 15-year-old Kiwi is the world's No 1 women's golf amateur but she was in a share of the lead at the halfway stage of the Canadian Open on the LPGA Tour. It's a tournament that boasts some of the world's best women's golfers and Ko is surely on the way to taking her place among that group.
She backed up her opening-round 68 with a bogey-free 68 in the second round to climb into a share of the lead at eight under par with Chella Choi (64) of South Korea.
The pair hold a three-shot lead over four players on five under - Americans Moira Dunn and Angela Stanford and South Koreans Inbee Park and Na Yeon Choi.
Ko made nine-straight pars on the front nine at the Vancouver Golf Club and came home strongly with four birdies - three in succession from holes 12- 14 - to claim a share of the lead and the spotlight heading into the weekend.
