GALLOWAY TOWNSHIP, N. Womens Air Max 90 Jade UK .J. -- Jennifer Johnson matched the course record with a 9-under 62 on Friday to take the
first-round lead in the ShopRite LPGA Classic. The 22-year-old Johnson, the
winner last year in Mobile, Alabama, had 10 birdies -- five straight on Nos.
9-13 -- and a bogey on the Bay Course at Stockton Seaview Hotel and Golf Club.
"Ive been playing well the past few weeks, so I felt pretty good about my game,"
Johnson said. "If you just let it happen and just let a good round come
together, normally it does." Haru Nomura had a bogey-free 63, and Christina Kim
opened with a 64. Top-ranked Inbee Park and Na Yeon Choi shot 66 in the morning
session. But theyre all chasing Johnson, who matched the record set by Laura
Davies and Jimin Kang in 2005. Johnson had a shot a 63 on the course two years
ago. "On 17, thats when I was 8 under and I was trying to beat my 63," Johnson
said. "So then I started getting a little nervous because my goal was to get to
10 under, but I only got to 9. But when you shoot something that youve never
shot before, nerves are going to happen." Nomura had eight birdies in her
career-low round. "All in all, my putting was on, my shot was really good and
the conditions were great," Nomura said. "So everything was perfect today." Kim
finished with seven birdies, including a 35-foot putt on 11 that she called "one
of the longest putts Ive made since the 90s." Park, winless this season, had
five birdies a week after missing the cut in Alabama to end her streak at 22
events. Focusing on not letting her shoulder dip down too much, which she said
caused her putts to veer to the left last week, Park drained a 15-foot birdie
putt on the first hole. For Park, ranked No. 1 for 59 straight weeks, that was
all she needed to get back on track. "I was a little bit worried before I teed
off today because of last weeks finish," Park said. "But after I birdied the
first hole, that really gave me a lot of confidence going into the rest of the
17 holes." Choi closed her round with an eagle on the par-5 ninth. She said she
felt "good vibes" all day after watching Rory McIlroy shoot a 9-under 63 at the
Memorial Tournament on Thursday. Chois swing coach, Robin Symes, and caddie,
David Jones, are both friendly with McIlroy, which has turned Choi into a big
fan of the PGA Tour star. "Ive heard a lot of good stories about him," Choi
said. "Ive never met him but it feels like we are good friends with each other.
And hopefully one day I will see him and meet him." Second-ranked Stacy Lewis
and Michelle Wie shot 67, and 17-year-old Lydia Ko was another stroke back. Wie,
who has seven top-10 finishes in 10 events this year, finished with five birdies
but was disappointed that only one of them came on a par 5. "Going into this
golf course, I always want to take advantage of the par-5s on the front nine,
but I didnt quite do that today," Wie said. "I think I did well on the par-4s
and par-3s today. And tomorrow Ive just got to keep doing the same and try to
take advantage of the par-5s." Hall of Famer Karrie Webb, the winner last year,
opened with a 69. Air Max 90 Womens Sale . The Tiger-Cats announced on Friday the linebacker has signed a new contract with the team
