Halfway

With 36 holes to go in the Tres Marías Championship, Mexican Lorena Ochoa is still on her feet and hoping to fight for the crown in her farewell. Even when she's away from the top, the Guadalajara native has a chance to make it through.

Lorena was joined by her family and husband.

Tied in the 6th position, world number 1 is happy to see her fans support her, but being close to the leaders is a bigger incentive. Joined by Miyazato and Gulbis, Lorena fought hard to make birdies, but she only sank four of them compared to the four bogeys she made.

Meanwhile Japanese Ai Miyazato suffered to keep the lead and gave it away to Michelle Wie, who converted 8 birdie opportunities and made three mistakes, two of them in the last couple of holes. On the other hand, Brittany Lincicome made everything to tied for the lead and even made an ace on 13, but it was just not enough.

Now,  these golfers will keep the pace in order to seek for the title and try to overcome the climatic conditions, which have been a affecting their game and that will be a factor to tale into consideration for the weekend.
