Syndication: The News-PressIngrid Lindblad lines up her putt on no. 16 during the final round of the 2024 Augusta National Women’s Amateur golf tournament at Augusta National Golf Club.

Swedish rookie Ingrid Lindblad produced two strings of four consecutive birdies on Friday, and she jumped into a tie for first place at the JM Eagle LA Championship in Los Angeles.

Lindblad carded a 9-under-par 63 at El Caballero Country Club, leaving her at 13-under 131 through two rounds. She is level with first-round co-leader Ashleigh Buhai of South Africa, who posted a 68 on Friday.

Australia’s Minjee Lee charged into second place at 12 under with a second-round 65.

The other first-round co-leader, China’s Yan Liu, is tied for fourth at 11 under after a 70. Lauren Coughlin (second-round 67) and Japan’s Miyu Yamashita (65) also are at 11 under.

Andrea Lee (65), Thailand’s Pajaree Anannarukarn (65) and three South Korean players, Jin Hee Im (66), Sei Young Kim (68) and Jenny Shin (69) are all at 10 under, tied for seventh.

World No. 1 Nelly Korda produced a 68 on Friday, leaving her tied for 12th at 9 under. Two-time defending champion Hannah Green of Australia is another shot back, tied for 20th, after a 67.

Lindblad, 25, appeared in just three previous tournaments since joining the tour this year, and her best result was a tie for 38th at the Ford Championship last month.

On Friday, she logged 10 birdies, including strings from No. 3 to No. 6 and from No. 11 to No. 14. Her lone bogey came on the par-4 10th hole. The result was her best-ever round on a par-72 course.

“I just read the greens really well so it was like every putt I stood over I’m like, ‘OK, this has a chance to go in,’ ” Lindblad said. “… Made a couple of these like good 10-footers, 17 footers, so it wasn’t just tap-ins, tap-ins for par. … Feel like (the score) could have been lower, too.”

The results came after Lindblad made a tweak to her game following the first round.

“Yesterday the first couple holes I couldn’t hit the center of the face with the driver,” she said. “It was like high, low. I don’t know if anyone saw my driving distance on hole 11. It was 206 yards and it was because I hit a low right and it caught a tree.

“So kind of hit a couple balls on the range yesterday, worked on my ball position, and just put it a hair higher up in my stance and hit my driver a lot better today.”

Buhai opened her second round with a birdie, then followed immediately with her lone bogey of the day. She added four more birdies the rest of the way.

Minjee Lee logged a bogey-free day to move into contention.

“Hit it really solid,” she said. “Holed quite a number of good length putts. The greens were a little bit … softer, but for the most part they were releasing out. So I felt like I wasn’t right next to the holes, so I holed a bunch of really nice length putts.”

Damian Lillard injury update: Bucks star diagnosed with torn left Achilles tendon suffered during playoff game

Getty Images Milwaukee Bucks star Damian Lillard has torn his left Achilles tendon, the team announced Monday. It's news that the Bucks feared would be confirmed after an MRI Monday, and now the sobering reality has set in. Lillard will miss the rest of the playoffs for the Bucks, and will likely also miss a good chunk -- if not all -- of next season rehabbing from the injury.The injury occurred just six minutes into the first quarter of Game 3 on Sunday. Lillard was attempting to corral an offensive rebound off a missed Gary Trent Jr. 3-pointer, but as he tried to accelerate, the All-Star guard crumpled to the ground, visibly in pain. Play continued as Lillard sat at the 3-point line, and as Kyle Kuzma tried to help him off the floor at the next dead ball, Lillard […]

What winning the Champions League would mean for the four remaining clubs

David Mosse Soccer Analyst <!--> And then there were four in this edition of the UEFA Champions League with the semifinals set to get underway this week. The competition began with 81 clubs from across the continent, but as has become commonplace in recent years, there is nary a Cinderella left at this stage.The increasingly top-heavy nature of European football means no one is surprised that four clubs with the pedigree of Arsenal, PSG, Barcelona and Inter are the last ones standing. All are in the top two in their domestic leagues, with the French side having already secured the Ligue 1 crown.But none of this star-studded quartet has lifted the trophy in the last nine years. Two have never won it, while the other two are desperate to end uncomfortable droughts. It should make for a dramatic conclusion to […]

Bills GM Brandon Beane expresses frustration on radio after being criticized for not drafting a receiver

The Buffalo Bills didn't win the Super Bowl last season, but the team had a lot going for it. After trading away Stefon Diggs last offseason, Buffalo's offense somehow improved and Josh Allen took home his first MVP award.While Allen and the rest of the offense look strong again in 2025, the Bills neglected to address that side of the ball during most of the 2025 NFL Draft, instead focusing on strengthening the team's defense. Buffalo's strategy — particularly the team's decision to not take a wide receiver early — came under fire on "The Jeremy and Joe" radio show in Buffalo.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementBeane made a scheduled appearance on the show shortly after that conversation, and wasn't happy about being criticized for not grabbing a receiver, according to ESPN."Well, you guys were b****ing in 2018 about Josh Allen, you guys wanted Josh […]
