Hinako Shibuno, after winning last year’s Women’s British Open for her first major championship, says it’s been more difficult for her to go out to dinner in her native Japan. Even while wearing a mask during these Covid times.
“Well, I turned from a normal person to a celebrity overnight, and I don’t know how to explain it, but I feel like I’m acting like a good person,” she said.
Shibuno’s 36 holes away from having to wear a football helmet in public. Or maybe just ordering in.
The 22-year-old shot a four-under 67 on Friday during the second round of the U.S. Women’s Open for a seven-under total and a three-shot lead over Linn Grant and a four-shot lead over Kaitlyn Papp, Megan Khang and Amy Olson. On Saturday, Shibuno, Grant and Papp tee off at 12:35 p.m. ET in the day’s final grouping at Champions Golf Club in Houston, and Khang, Olson and Weaver tee off second-to-last, at 12:24 p.m.
