Stephanie Meadow in contention for LPGA Tour Card

Irish Olympian Stephanie Meadow is well in contention at the LPGA Qualifying School in Florida after her second round 70.

Starting the day tied for 52nd, the 24-year-old moved 25 places up the leaderboard after a strong front nine saw her pick up three birdies. 

She struggled on 11 and 16, with bogeys on each, but saw her finish strong with a birdie on 18 to cap a round of two under-par.

The top 20 will receive cards and strong performances on the Hills Course and yesterday's performance on the Jones Course.

Two-time Solheim Cup member Mel Reid and 17-year-old Nasa Hataoka share the 36-hole lead sitting at 11-under.

"64 is always nice," Reid told the LPGA. "I thought I could’ve gone deep out there today. I feel like I missed two or three other chances easily.

"With the winds and stuff I was pretty happy. All in all I hit most of the shots that me and Benji discussed and I feel like my swing is in a good place."
