Round Two at Honda LPGA Thailand 2026 Delivers Tight Leaderboard Battle
World-class field sets up weekend showdown in Pattaya as low scoring continues at Siam Country Club
The second round of the 2026 Honda LPGA Thailand produced another day of low scoring at Siam Country Club’s Old Course in Pattaya, tightening the leaderboard and setting the stage for a compelling weekend contest.
Under warm conditions and receptive greens, several players capitalised on calm morning winds to post strong rounds, with multiple competitors carding scores in the mid-sixties.
The tournament, one of Asia’s premier women’s golf events, once again showcased the depth of the LPGA Tour field, with established major champions and rising talents jostling for position.
Heading into the weekend, the leading contenders are separated by only a handful of strokes, reflecting both the course’s scoring opportunities and the precision required to navigate its strategic bunkering and water hazards.
Birdies flowed on the par-fives, while the tighter par-four finishing stretch tested nerve and accuracy.
Thai players drew vocal support from home crowds, with local hopes remaining in contention after solid second-round performances.
Their presence near the top of the leaderboard added to the atmosphere at Pattaya, where fans lined the fairways to cheer on the international field.
Tournament officials noted that scoring conditions may shift over the weekend should winds strengthen, potentially rewarding consistency and course management over aggressive play.
With prize money and valuable ranking points on the line early in the season, players are keen to build momentum in one of the LPGA’s most popular stops.
As the cut was made and the field narrowed, the 2026 Honda LPGA Thailand now moves into its decisive stages, with the championship poised for a closely fought conclusion.
