Shanhan Feng appears determined to awaken a sleeping giant in women’s golf.

With a 4-under-par 67 Friday, Feng kept herself in contention at the Evian Championship.

At 11 under overall, she is tied for second with Sung Hyun Park, two shots behind In Gee Chun.

Feng ignited interest in her game back in China by winning the Olympic bronze medal in Rio de Janeiro last month. She was greeted by a large contingent of media at the airport upon her arrival home in Guangzhou after the Olympics. She would like to build on the interest her Rio finish generated in golf in her homeland.
