INCHEON, South Korea -- Suzann Pettersen shot a course-record 9-under 63 Friday to take a one-stroke lead after the first round of the LPGAs HanaBank Championship. The Norwegian finished a shot clear of Swedens Karin Sjodin at the Ocean Course in Incheon, with five players tied for third, two shots back. Japans Ai Miyazato, Spains Azahara Munoz and the South Korean trio of So Yeon Ryu, Moon Hyun-Hee and Kim Ha-Neul all shot 66. In perfect conditions at the course 25 miles west of Seoul, Pettersen sank five birdies in the first six holes on the Jack Nicklaus-designed course to make a brilliant start to the three-day event. "Being three rounds, you want to get off to a hot start and I cant complain with todays round," Pettersen said. "I got off to a good start, found the feel of the greens this morning and worked hard to feel the speed yesterday and made some great putts and great shots," she said. "Im really trying to read whats out there; some pins are par pins and some pins you attack." Defending champion and world No. 1 Yani Tseng had a 68, while No. 2 Stacy Lewis finished at par with a 72. Pettersen also set a course record last week at the Sime Derby LPGA Malaysia, only to falter in the final two rounds. "I feel like I have some low rounds in me now. It is nice when the way you feel equals the score you put on the scorecard," Pettersen said. It was an excellent day for Scandinavia with Swedens Sjodin pushing Pettersen all the way. "I felt like I was hitting the ball really solid," Sjodin said. "The birdies were long putts. I had three close ones and missed all three." Sjodin, ranked 75th in the world, has three South Koreans on her heels. Playing in front of an enthusiastic home crowd, the locals are expected to perform well, though Inbee Park, ranked fifth in the world and atop of the money list this season, was tied for 24th after a 70. "Seeing all the Korean players on tour in their home environment and how they blossom here. Its really great to see," Sjodin said. Moon is one of the home contingent tied in third place and was delighted with her showing. "The conditions are perfect and there is almost no wind at all," she said. "In Korea, we have only one LPGA tournament a year and all players want to participate. My scores have not been so good lately. I wanted to boost my confidence and I think I did that today." Michelle Wie, playing on a sponsor invitation, finished tied in 44th place with a 73, the same as Cheyenne Woods, Tiger Woods niece. wholesale jerseys . -- Another 15-inning marathon, another victory. cheap jerseys .

Lawrie had just one bogey on another tough day for players on the challenging Gary Player Country Club course and made four birdies for a 4-under-par total of 140. A major champion over a decade ago, Lawrie had a one-shot lead over Ryder Cup teammate Martin Kaymer heading to the weekend and a chance at a third win this year. They were the only players to break 70 in the second round. "The course is demanding," Lawrie said. "You have to drive the ball very well and keep the ball in play to give yourself a chance to get it close to the pin. Its a great golf course. So far, so good but a long way to go." Kaymer had five birdies in his 69 and only consecutive bogeys on Nos. 8 and 9 kept him back. The German sank the putt that retained the Ryder Cup for Europe but despite that golden moment, the former top-ranked golfer hasnt won a tournament for a year. "Three-under par is a very good score on this golf course," Kaymer said. Charl Schwartzel recovered from a bogey on the second to go around in 71 for a share of third at 1 under with Francesco Molinari (71), Louis Oosthuizen (72) and overnight co-leader Bill Haas (73) -- two behind Kaymer and three off the pace. Defending champion Lee Westwood was level par in his quest to become the first player to win three straight Nedbank titles. The No. 6-ranked Englishman made two double bogeys in his second round and did well to only bogey No. 14 after ending up in an island of deep rough in the middle of a bunker. Only a birdie at the last kept Westwood from slipping into plus numbers in his title defence.dddddddddddd Haas came back well on the back nine after doubling his first hole and bogeying two more to turn at 40. The American made three birdies coming home for a 73 and a 1-under 143 alongside local hopes Schwartzel and Oosthuizen and Italys Molinari. Belgiums Nicolas Colsaerts crashed from a share of the overnight lead to a tie for 10th in the 12-player field after successive sevens -- one a double bogey and one a triple -- on the 2nd and 3rd. He also had two other bogeys for a 6-over 78 to slump to 4 over. Only Justin Rose was behind him. The No. 4-ranked Rose also had a triple-bogey seven on the treacherous par-4 3rd and four other bogeys to go 7 over for the day and slip to 8 over overall. Rose has followed the course-record 62 he shot in the final round of the World Tour Championship with rounds of 73 and 79 in South Africa. Swedes Peter Hanson and Carl Pettersson were behind Westwood in eighth and ninth respectively, with South Africas Garth Mulroy tied with Colsaerts for 10th on 4-over 148. Schwartzel and Oosthuizen were both within range of the lead and a first home win at Sun City for five years after hanging in there on a windy day. Lawrie benefited from staying well clear of the tough rough and dealt well with the breeze. His approach to within five feet on 17 set up the last of four birdies for the 1999 British Open champion, who has won twice in 2012 after going nearly a decade without a victory before last years Open de Andalucia. "I came back here a more experienced player, certainly a better tee to green player than I was in 1999," said Lawrie, who last played at Sun City the year he won the Open. "I am a better player than I was back then." ' ' '
