Yamashita Leads CPKC Open After Stellar Round | Fayetteville News

Miyu Yamashita is flying high after a blistering 8-under 62 to take the lead at the CPKC Women’s Open, one stroke ahead of fellow Japanese star Nasa Hataoka. Yamashita, already a multiple winner this year, is showing no signs of slowing down — even if she’s battling swarms of bugs on the course. Meanwhile, Kiara Romero, making her LPGA debut, shot a solid 64 to sit third, while two teenage Canadian phenoms — 17-year-old Anna Huang and 18-year-old Michelle Xing — are making waves on the leaderboard. Big names like Nelly Korda and Brooke Henderson, both at 67, are also in contention, with Henderson eyeing birdies to catch up. It’s shaping up to be a thrilling, bug-filled battle for the title.
