Cheyenne Knight learned to play golf in The Woodlands, Texas.
Now she could win a major there, too.
Knight fired a 3-under 69 Friday at The Club at Carlton Woods’ Nicklaus Course to move into contention at the Chevron Championship, the LPGA’s first major of the year. The 26-year-old Alabama alum, at 4 under overall, was three shots back of leader Lilia Vu halfway through the second round, which was delayed a few hours because of inclement weather.
“Just being in the mix and having a chance the next two days is my goal,” Knight said.
