Emma Talley continued her strong play on the LPGA Tour and stands tied for 17th place at the LPGA Marathon Classic in Sylvania, Ohio Thursday.
Talley shook off a slow start that saw her make the turn at 1-over. She birdied four of the final eight holes to finish at 3-under. Talley was accurate off the tee, hitting 12 of 14 fairways, and finished with 29 putts, just under her season average.
Talley is three shots off the lead entering Friday’s second round.
