Kupcho nearing LPGA card while battling food poisoning

PINEHURST, N.C. Wake Forests Jennifer Kupcho is putting together a remarkable effort at LPGA Q-Series considering she can barely eat.The reigning NCAA champion is making a run at winning despite battling the lingering effects of food poisoning.She shot a 3-under-par 69 Thursday to move into a tie for third, just two shots off the lead.It has been a struggle, trying to eat well and just make it through the day, Kupcho said. Ive been barely eating, but Ive been forcing myself, so I have enough strength to hit the ball.Her father, Mike, who is caddying for her this week, has also been ill, as haveJennifers grandparents. They began feeling ill before the fourth round.Were thinking its either the turkey sandwich at lunch or the pizza we got that night, Mike said. Were trying to figure out what it was.The Czech Republics Klara Spilkova (71), a Ladies European Tour winner, shares the lead with Sarah Schmelzel (68), a second-year Symetra Tour pro from Phoenix. Schmelzel equaled the days low score in the suspended sixth round.At 14 under overall, Schmelzel and Spilkova are two shots ahead of Kupcho (69) and another collegian, Alabamas Lauren Stephenson (71).
