RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. – Lydia Ko played a pretty good round Friday for being unable to see much out of one eye.
With allergies giving her fits, Ko struggled with her contact lenses during the second round of the ANA Inspiration, especially the lens in her left eye, but she still managed to get into contention posting a 4-under-par 68. She will start the weekend just one shot off the lead.
“I’m currently one eye blind,” Ko said after the round.
Ko, 18, was having problems even before she teed off. She changed to new lenses at the second hole and still struggled, popping lenses in and out through most of her round.
