She told media in Canada on Wednesday she believes she is making progress despite her struggles to get into contention.There are a lot of positive things going on, Ko said. So, Im trying to keep my head high and keep working on my game. With golf, you feel like everythings going good, but it just doesnt click. So, Im hoping for it to kind of click soon.Jutanugarn and Ko combined to win nine LPGA titles last year. Jutanugarns victory at the Manulife Classic in June is the lone victory between the two of them this year.
Ko gathered six birdies in a testing breeze on the Highland Meadows course to join South Korean Kim Hyo-joo (68) at eight-under 134, one stroke ahead of American Alison Lee and South Korean Jang Ha-na, with Ariya Jutanugarn of Thailand among a trio two shots back.
