Golf history was made on Friday in the second round of the 2025 Chevron Championship at the Woodlands, Texas. For only the fifth time ever, a women’s golfer made an Albatross in a major championship. Liu Yan of Beijing, China accomplished the feat as it only took her two shots to get the golf ball in the hole on the par five eighth hole. Yan went from -5 to -7 and was the leader at the halfway point of the first major of the women’s golf season.
Yan, who is 195th in the world, actually had a tough day in Texas on Friday as she only went even par. She had four bogeys and one birdie. Yan’s best complete round was the first round on Thursday, as she made seven birdies and zero bogeys.
