Kupcho, Ernst share lead in LPGA's Drive On Championship

Jefferson Academy graduate Jennifer Kupcho is 10-under par going into Saturday.

OCALA, Fla. — Jennifer Kupcho and Austin Ernst each shot their second straight 5-under 67 to share the second-round lead Friday in the LPGA Tour’s Drive On Championship.

A day after playing most of the back nine with a migraine that blurs her vision, Kupcho had six birdies and a bogey at Golden Ocala.

The former Wake Forest star from Colorado is seeking her first LPGA Tour victory. Ernst had a bogey-free round. She has two LPGA Tour victories. Carlota Ciganda of Spain had the best round of the day, a bogey-free 65 to get to 8 under.

She played alongside Laura Davies, the 57-year-old Hall of Famer who rebounded from an opening 75 with a 69 to advance to the weekend at even par.
