Morgan Pressel one back at Owens Corning Classic
Comments 0 | Recommend 0SYLVANIA, Ohio (AP) - With a surprised hop, Laura Diaz tied
Sarah Kemp for the second-round lead Friday in the Jamie Farr Owens
Corning Classic.
Diaz looked discouraged with the putt halfway to the final hole
but then hopped in celebration when the 12-foot birdie try went in,
giving her a 4-under 67 and a share of the lead with Kemp (63) at
11-under 131. Kemp had never led in her year and a half as a pro,
while Diaz is winless since two victories in 2002.
Morgan Pressel (68) was a shot back, and Natalie Gulbis (65),
Seon Hwa Lee (63) and Jiyai Shin (67) followed at 9 under.
Michelle Wie, seeking her first professional victory,
three-putted the final hole for double bogey and a 69, leaving her
three strokes behind along with Suzann Pettersen (69), Lindsey
Wright (68), Kyeong Bae (64) and Eunjung Yi (66).
