It is as you were at the top of the leaderboard in the latest Aramco Team Series event in Florida as Nuria Iturrioz leads by one at five-under in the weather-delayed competition at Trump International Golf Club West Palm Beach.

After a storm held up day one, the golfers were still playing catch up when darkness fell on day two, meaning Iturrioz still has four holes to play on Sunday to complete her second round.

The Spaniard leads by one over Scottish rookie Louise Duncan, who turned pro in July last year.

Duncan, who won the 2021 Women’s Amateur Championship, is looking for her first win as a professional.

She sits alongside Solheim Cup star Carlota Ciganda, who took advantage of the placid morning conditions by carding a three-under par 69.

“This morning I thought it was going to be a little easier, a little less windy than yesterday,” Ciganda said. “I hit some good shots, but to be honest my putting was great. I made some good up-and-downs and some good putts for birdie, so that was the key.”

Despite having to play 20 holes on Saturday, American Lindsey Weaver-Wright also shot up the leaderboard, with a second-round three-under taking her up to fifth spot.

“I played pretty steady and other than that, I made a couple of putts. These greens are kind of tricky and with the wind, it can get really tough out there, especially down the final stretch. So, I was just happy to par those holes and

then finish under par”.

Home favourite Lexi Thompson is level-par, tied 9th for the tournament, while world No. 3 Lydia Ko sits on one-under in a share of sixth.

Aside from the drama of the individual championship, it was all to play for in the team event featuring an ever-changing leaderboard throughout the day. Team Alexander finished the day at 23-under-par, leading in the clubhouse overnight. However, they have a long wait to see the final results, as ‘Team Roussin’, captained by Pauline Roussin lead the team championship at 28-under-par through 14 holes before darkness suspended play on Saturday.

60 players and ties proceed to the final round of the Aramco Team Series Florida, as the Team event concludes at the end of the second round.
