Woad, Romero Share Lead at Augusta Women's Amateur

Lottie Woad and Kiara Romero are tied for the lead at the Augusta National Women's Amateur, both posting scores of 9-under-par 135 after the second round. Woad, the defending champion and top-ranked amateur, shot a 2-under 70, while Romero had a dynamic round with a closing set of three birdies to finish at 68. The pressure is on as three players, including Carla Bernat Escuder and Andrea Revuelta, sit just one stroke behind, and five players are within two shots of the lead. Woad's experience from last year's tournament and Romero's improvement from her previous performance set the stage for a competitive final round. A record 32 players made the cut, all under par, marking a significant achievement for the tournament. The final round will occur on Saturday at Augusta National following a practice round on Friday.
