Angel Yin dials back swing to lessen pain from shoulder injury, avoid surgery

ORLANDO, Fla. – Angel Yin wasn’t feeling 100 percent on Saturday. She hid the pain well.

Yin carded an eagle, six birdies and one bogey en route to a third-round, 7-under 65 to match the low round of the week at the Gainbridge LPGA at Lake Nona Golf and Country Club. It’s her lowest round on tour since July 2019.

“To shoot 7 under, it just feels really good because I wasn't able to do that in a while,” Yin said. “Even though I knew where my game was, the pain was overshadowing everything.”

Yin, a lighthearted spirit, got serious when talking about the shoulder pain she’s battled over the last year.
