Wichanee Meechai leads after round two of 2024 US Women’s Open

We are at the halfway mark of the 2024 United States Women’s Open from the Lancaster Country Club in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Thailand’s Wichanee Meechai is in the lead.

Meechai is currently at -4 after an opening round score of one-under-par 69 and a second round score of three-under-par 67. On Friday, Meechai had a brilliant start. While starting on the back nine, she birdied the 10th, 11th, 12th and 13th holes to get to -5. Meechai then went through a difficult stretch as she had three bogeys in a seven hole stretch (bogeyed the 15th, 18th and third holes) to drop to -2 before notching birdies on the fourth and eighth holes.

On Thursday in round one, Meechai had five birdies and four bogeys. She birdied the first, sixth, ninth, 12th and 16th holes, and bogeyed the second, eighth, 14th, and 15th holes. In assessing Meechai’s play to date, she has not been conservative on the course so far. Her commitment to go for birdies rather than par has paid dividends.

There are three more golfers in contention. American Andrea Lee of Los Angeles, California is two strokes back at -2. Meanwhile, two major golf champions are three strokes back at -1. They are 2021 Evian Masters Champion and 2022 United States Women’s Open champion Minjee Lee of Perth, Australia, and 2021 United States Women’s Open champion Yuka Saso, who at the time represented the Philippines and is now representing Japan.

The other major story was the fact that the world number one Nelly Korda of the United States did not make the cut. She finished at +10. This was Korda’s first missed cut since the 2023 Women’s PGA Championship in Springfield, New Jersey. In that time she made 17 straight cuts on the LPGA Tour, and won seven times.
