KAHUKU — Two former South Korean teammates and a veteran who hasn't won in a decade topped the leaderboard in the LPGA Tour's season-opening SBS Open.Joo Mi Kim tied the tournament record with a 7-under 65 on Friday for a share of the second-round lead with Sung Ah Yim (66) and Becky Iverson at 9-under 135.
The three were in the morning session, which had an easy time in balmy and unusually calm conditions on the Turtle Bay Resort's oceanside Arnold Palmer Course. But the conditions picked up later in the day, challenging the afternoon players.
Former University of Tulsa standout Stacy Prammanasudh (67) was 8 under and Soo Young Moon (67) was another stroke back. Rookie Kyeong Bae, coming off a two-win season on the Futures Tour, shot a 71 to reach 6 under.
