Jang takes 1-stroke lead into last round at LPGA Singapore

Top-ranked Lydia Ko yesterday carded an ugly 74 as she slipped nine shots off the pace set by South Koreans Jang Ha-na and Mirim Lee at the HSBC Women's Champions in Singapore.

Lee got up and down from a greenside bunker to birdie the last and shoot a 67 to join Jang in a two-way tie at the top of a congested leaderboard after a wet and windy second round at Sentosa Golf Club.

The world No. 10 was inches away from making another eagle putt from off the green on the final hole, tapping in for her fourth birdie of the day.

Thailand's Pornanong Phatlum had the same score to sit one shot back.

Spurs, missing 3 starters, improve to 30-0 at home
With Aldridge sidelined, David West could slide into the starting lineup while Boris Diaw could pick up some additional minutes. Ginobili has missed 12 consecutive games since getting injured in the fourth quarter of the Spurs-Pelicans game a month ago.

The 23-year-old cut her teeth on her domestic tour but has already made history in her second year on the LPGA when she became the first golfer on the circuit to hit a hole-in-one on a par-four at the Pure Silk-Bahamas LPGA Classic.

Five birdies for a 31 on the back nine, including three straight from the 16th, drove her up the leaderboard and into today's final flight alongside Jang and Pornanong.

"I may try and be a little more aggressive tomorrow", Jang said in a post-round interview.

Arizona State crashes the glass to beat Stanford 74-64
He's shooting just 30.2 percent from the floor this season, including a 19.4 percent rate from beyond the arc. Stanford has played its final road contest of the regular season in Tucson in each of the last three seasons.

The joint overnight leaders, Koahsiung-born veteran Candie Kung and Australian teenager Minjee Lee both finished strongly after mixed rounds to remain in contention. "I think he's going to be red-hot for the Masters". "I got a few putts to go in and they weren't very long". She birdied the 13th and dropped a shot at the 17th after an errant tee shot but made amends with a birdie at the last. But as close to ideal as her game has been at the Serapong Course, she still wants more.

"I've been playing some solid golf, hitting good golf shots and maneuvering myself around this golf course in a pretty easy way", Pettersen said.

"It was kind of frustrating, the first nine, shooting one-over-par without any birdies", Yang said.

Pornanong is off to a good start this year with $82,300 in winnings after just three tour events, putting her 16th on the LPGA money list and 34th in the Rolex World Rankings.
