Maria Fassi is desperately looking for a breakthrough, and halfway through the Kroger Queen City Championship, she can taste one.
The 24-year-old Mexican followed up an opening 68 by carding five birdies in her final six holes Friday to close with a 66. She sits in fourth place at 10 under, three shots off Jeongeun Lee's lead.
It's a drastic difference from last Friday — and most of her season — at the Dana Open when Fassi shot a second-round 72 after opening with a 68 en route to finishing T-73.
"Last week it was the opposite for me," Fassi said after her round.
