With encouragement from Harmon, Kang in contention for second major

RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. – Danielle Kang is getting pep talks from swing coach Butch Harmon after every round.

What is he saying with Kang in the hunt to win the ANA Inspiration Sunday at Mission Hills?

“'This is how I want you to play,’ is what he said,’” Kang relayed.

Kang, 26, is looking to win her third LPGA title and her second major championship. She followed up her KPMG Women’s PGA Championship two years ago with a victory at the Buick LPGA Shanghai last fall.

A 2-under-par 70 on the Dinah Shore Course Saturday moved Kang three shots behind the leader, Jin Young Ko (68).
