Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the note laying up live show podcast presented as always by our friends at Titleist coming to you live from on site here at the United States Women's Open presented by Ally here at Riviera Country Club, a dream come true for these two to my right. The one closest to me is Mr. Big Randy. Hello, big.

How did Nelly Korda perform in her second round?

Randy 0:49
How are you?
Solly 0:50
I am excellent, Solly. I guess I can take off my media credential here. If you didn't know, I had it inside the ropes access today.
Randy 0:57
Your boy is living. TC is here. First ever time at Riviera. Did it meet the hype?
TC 1:04
It did. It did. The course, the setting, I think the cream's rising to the top, the setup, all of it. We'll talk about it all, but 10 out of 10 for me.
Randy 1:17
It's off to a great start. And of course, tonight's show is actually going to be coming. The first few segments here are going to be coming commercial free, ad free by our friends at Titleist, the number one ball at the U.S. Women's Open. They snuck that one in there. You know, teeny, teeny, tiny ad. But thank you to them for letting us get right to the show. Randy, I'm starting with you. biggest storylines of the week. If someone's just trying to get caught up, maybe hasn't had a chance to watch shame on you. First of all, it's been incredible evening viewing a lot of coverage from sunup to sundown, but heading into the weekend, get people caught up. Where, where are we at the halfway point here?
Solly 1:49
We're in a great spot. I would say forward-looking. Tune in. As TC just said, the cream is rising to the top. We have some excellent names up there on the leaderboard. I would say maybe the biggest story, naturally, Nellie Korda.

What insights does Lauren Coughlin share about her experience at the U.S. Women's Open?

Solly 2:02
We're interested in how she is doing. She won the first major of the year at the Chevron about a month ago. plus ago. Struggled a little bit in round one, but answered the bell today with a 67. She has herself at two under par overall, right in the thick of things. I'd argue in an excellent place heading into the weekend. So I won't step on all the top storylines, but I would say Nellie, Ron and Yen, we have a very good board developing. And I think credit to the venue and the tests that these women have faced thus far at TC.
TC 2:35
And credit to Nelly, Gino, LC.
Solly 2:40
Some fight.
TC 2:40
Yeah, I've seen some grit, some metal, some bottle.
Solly 2:44
Proper play.
TC 2:45
Big Saturday and Sunday coming up for some of these ladies. And you know what? I would say big Saturday, Sunday coming up for LA as well. Get your asses out here.
Randy 2:53
It's time, people. It's time. And we need some cheer. We need some recognition of good shot. I had Shaq all worked up today. Jeff Shackelford.
TC 3:00
Jeff Shackelford, not Shaquille O'Neal.
Randy 3:02
Yeah, it was all worked. Shaq would have been equally upset. Hannah Green had this unbelievable shot out of the right rough to the front right pin on number five. And there was just like a... a smattering smattering he's like that's an unbelievable shot where's the applause these people don't know it scottish fans would have been scott they would have been going nuts all over st louis cardinals fans would have been appreciating that it's been a solid crowd it's just kind of a muted atmosphere which honestly lines up with what i feel like i've seen at the genesis as well i never feel like it's kind of a a raucous atmosphere out there but uh There was a throng of people out there with the feature group in the afternoon, and I think hopefully the numbers are good this weekend because the tickets are available, affordable, and the viewing is one of the best.
Randy 3:48
I've never been to a tournament here.

What makes Riviera Country Club a standout venue for the tournament?

Randy 3:49
I've been here a couple times, but never been to a tournament, and it's one of the easiest spots to go watch a tournament, especially when you get kind of out into that far part of the property. You know, 16 greens, it's right over there by six, seven and eight are very good viewing spots. Five is great. Four is great. You can dart over to the back nine if you need to.
