Stoelting returns from maternity break to share LPGA lead. MORE:
With her mother with her to look after son Baren, the 34-year-old Stoelting had a bogey-free 7-under 64 — playing her first nine in 5-under 30 — to join Anna Nordqvist and rookie Esther Lee atop the leaderboard.
“I think the great thing with having my child is now in the past I would’ve sat there and looked at scores and just sat in my room not knowing what to do,” Stoelting said. “Now I have a great distraction, and my husband’s actually flying in this afternoon.”“I would’ve gone back earlier, but everything with COVID, and flying with a baby just makes things a little bit more difficult," Stoelting said.
Nordqvist, the 33-year-old Swede with two major titles and six other LPGA Tour victories, also opened with a 5-under 30 on the back nine in a bogey-free round. “I’s been hard to find a rhythm for tournament golf,” Lee said. “I’ve definitely struggled the first few back. It’s nice that when everyone was in Scotland for two weeks, I was just at home and just kind of took a breather. Just kind of re-examined everything and seems to be working well so far.”
