Jang Ha Na leads LPGA Tour’s Founders Cup

March 20, 2015

PHOENIX (AP) — Ha Na Jang topped the crowded leaderboard Friday when darkness ended play at the LPGA Tour’s JTBC Founders Cup.

Jang birdied her final four holes to reach 11 under with seven holes left in the second round. She opened with a 4-under 68 on Thursday at Desert Ridge.

Fellow South Korean player Hyo Joo Kim was a stroke back, and Lydia Ko and Na Yeon Choi are at 7 under with eight holes left to finish the second round.

Kim played 30 holes Friday in the tournament that fell behind Thursday when rain delayed the start four hours. She completed a 65 in the first round and had 69 in the second.

Stacy Lewis and Kim Kaufman were 9 under.

Lewis, the 2013 winner, also played 30 holes. She opened with a 64, making seven birdies in a nine-hole stretch to take the first-round lead, and added a 71.

Kaufman bogeyed her final hole of the day, the par-4 12th.
