Portland Classic Day 2: From Rising Stars to Living Legends

In this Birdie Briefing, Marie recaps all the action from Round 2 of the 2025 Portland Classic. Jeongeun Lee5 climbs into solo first at -12, with Grace Kim and Gurleen Kaur close behind at -11. Rising rookie Akie Iwai, Ashleigh Buhai, and Pajaree Anannarukarn headline a packed chase group at -10, while a deep field at -9 keeps the leaderboard tight heading into moving day. Marie spotlights Grace Kim’s tutu bet payoff, Amelia Lewis’ surprise surge, and Rose Zhang’s inspiring return to form. She also celebrates amateur standout Kiara Romero and reflects on LPGA legend Juli Inkster — a true icon whose presence continues to inspire, even as she just missed the cut this week. With two rounds left, the stage is set for a thrilling weekend in Portland.
