Nelly Korda fired a strong second round to reach 14 under par after 36 holes at the Chevron Championship, opening a seven-shot lead in the LPGA's first major. Amateur Farah O’Keefe sits tied for second at seven under, drawing inspiration from Rory McIlroy's Masters comeback. Stacy Lewis marked an emotional farewell with her father caddying her final hole.
The LPGA has constructed a temporary 15-by-10-foot plunge pool beside the 18th green at Memorial Park in Houston to preserve the Chevron Championship's pond jump tradition during the 2026 event. Organizers plan a permanent pond redesign after this year's tournament. Players like Stacy Lewis and Nelly Korda praised the effort to maintain the 40-year custom started by Amy Alcott.
