The Chevron Championship: Patty Tavatanakit’s Mission (Hills) to defend is right on track
2019 AIG Women’s Open champion Hinaki Shibuno leads but last year’s champion is hot on her heels.
The town is known for a raucous party scene, the course is recognised as a ball-striking test, and the winner always jumps into Poppie's Pond.
Hinako Shibuno leads by one stroke heading into the weekend at the @Chevron_Golf ⛳️

Among those looking to pounce of the leaders fail to live up to history are in the in-form Dane Nanna Koerstz Madsen, three back on 6-under, plus course expert Lexi Thompson and England's Georgia Hall, four back.
The World No. 1 Jin Young Ko carded a 68 to make the cut and move to T29th on 2-under for the week. She had a big task on her hands to land a third Major Championship.
Boom! 💥
