Haeran Ryu, who held a share of the lead coming into the second round, backed up her first round 63 with a 67 to hold onto a two-stroke lead over Somi Lee.

Ryu started a bit slow, sitting at +1 thru four holes. She bounced back quick though, with birdies on holes five and six. She finished that front nine off with an eagle on nine. She mostly just maintained position on the back nine, with birdies on 13 and 14 with seven pars.

As usual with Ryu, the ball striking was nearly flawless. She hit 13 fairways and 16 greens on the round, averaging over 300 yards off the tee. She has hit 26/28 fairways so far this week and 33/36 greens.

Lee sits two strokes back after back-to-back rounds of 66. Olympic silver medalist Esther Henseleit rounds out the top three on the leaderboard at -11.

The third round of the Black Desert Championship kicks back off tomorrow, with coverage starting at 6:00 eastern.
