Stark went the second round of the PGA Championship in Frisco, Texas, on two strokes under par and is with +1 total shared eleventh before the third round.
Quite stable. We played smart today, says Stark after the round.
It was different during the start of the first round. Then Stark – who won the major tournament US Open in the beginning of June – was five strokes over par after as many holes.
When I got the tough start I thought: "Okay, but I won the US Open recently, so it's okay". But then the competitive devil in me woke up, so now I want to win here too, says Stark after the second round.
However, it is a few strokes up to the absolute top. The Thai Jeeno Thitikul leads on six strokes under par – three strokes before the second-placed Rio Takeda, Japan, and Minjee Lee, Australia.
Stark was the only Swede out of a total of seven starters to pass the qualifying limit (+7).
For Anna Nordqvist (+8), Linn Grant (+8), Madelene Sagström (+9), Ingrid Lindblad (+10), Frida Kinhult (+10) and Linnea Ström (+11) it is finished playing.
