SYLVANIA, Ohio -- Lydia Ko shot a 5-under 66 in windy conditions Friday for a share of the Marathon Classic lead with Hyo Joo Kim.The top-ranked Ko had six birdies and one bogey at Highland Meadows to match Kim at 8-under 134. Kim, tied for the first-round lead with Mirim Lee and Haru Nomura, had a 68.I think this is the windiest Ive ever played this course, said Ko, the 2014 tournament winner. In this wind and in the conditions, I feel like my score is a pretty solid one this morning.Ko won in consecutive weeks in Southern California this year, the second the major ANA Inspiration. The 19-year-old New Zealander tied for third last week in the U.S. Womens Open in California.I started off well with a birdie on my first hole, and then made a clumsy bogey on the next hole, Ko said. I hit a few good shots in. I had a few birdies where it was 3, 4, 5 feet. When you got those birdie chances makes it a whole lot easier.Kim won the season-opening event in the Bahamas for her third career title.Yesterday was way better, Kim said through a translator. Still today, I played great.Alison Lee and Ha Na Jang were a stroke back. Alison Lee birdied the last three holes for a 66.Finishing birdie, birdie, birdie was great, obviously, Alison Lee said. I havent had a good round like this in a while. To be honest, I struggled fairly a lot for the past like about four months. Feels great to shoot under par again.Jang shot 67. She has two victories this season.I think just be patient every hole, just fairway and the greens, Jang said. Because this golf course really small green. Just target is middle of the green.Mirim Lee had a 70 to drop into a tie for fifth at 6 under. Ariya Jutanugarn, the long-hitting Thai player who won three straight events in May, also was 6 under after a 69.Nomura was 5 under after a 71. Stacy Lewis matched her after a 68.Brittany Lang, coming off a playoff victory over Anna Nordqvist on Sunday in the U.S. Womens Open, shot a 69 to reach 3 under. Nordqvist was even par after a 72.Italys Virginia Elena Carta, the NCAA champion this year as a Duke freshman, was 2 under after a 69 in her first start in an LPGA Tour event.Second-ranked Brooke Henderson also was 2 under after a 72. The Canadian teen has two victories this year, beating Ko in a playoff in the major KPMG Womens PGA and successfully defending a title in Oregon.Defending champion Chella Choi missed the cut with rounds of 69 and 74. Last year, she beat Jang with a par on the first hole of a playoff for her first LPGA Tour victory.Michelle Wie also dropped out, following her opening 69 with a 77. Custom Pirates Jersey China .

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Bret Bielema talked throughout the offseason about the need to start the season well.After two losses in the last three games, the Arkansas coach is now counting on the No. 22 Razorbacks (4-2, 0-2 Southeastern Conference) to again finish strong if they hope to improve their win total for a fourth straight season.Arkansas most recent loss was a 49-30 setback to No. 1 Alabama last week, the schools 10th straight to the Crimson Tide. The Razorbacks also lost three weeks ago to No. 6 Texas A&M, and the schedule doesnt get any easier this week when they host No. 12 Mississippi (3-2, 1-1).Yeah, weve lost to two teams in the SEC West that are also two teams that are probably in the top five in the country by a lot of peoples perspective, Bielema said. The SEC West is pretty good, if you havent noticed.The last time Arkansas lost its first two SEC games was in 2014, when the school eventually lost its first five conference games on the way to an 0-13 start to Bielemas SEC career.That season, the Razorbacks recovered from their early woes by winning two of their final three SEC games and improving their overall record to 7-6 after winning only three games in Bielemas first season in 2013. Arkansas finished 8-5 last season, but that only came after a 2-4 start that was overcome by six wins in the Razorbacks final seven games.The quick start Bielema stressed was there this year, with three straight wins to open the season, but many in Arkansas are now questioning when -- and if -- the Razorbacks will win another game.ddddddddddddAt the beginning of the year, everybodys talking about how well were starting fast, Bielema said. Now, I guess weve got the midseason blues.Those blues have the very real possibility of extending into the second half of the season, especially if Arkansas doesnt improve its abysmal offensive line play.The Razorbacks allowed six sacks and 12 hurries of quarterback Austin Allen against the Crimson Tide, and their season total of 13 sacks allowed is only one away from how many the school has allowed in each of the last two seasons.Pass protection isnt the only area where the line is struggling, with Arkansas per-rush average down from 5 yards per carry a season ago to 4.4 this year.If the offensive line is going to improve, it will have to do so against an all-SEC schedule to close out the year. Following this weeks game against the Rebels, Arkansas has five more conference games -- against Auburn, Florida, LSU, Mississippi State and Missouri.Well just take every game as it comes, Bielema said. Obviously, six games in front of us (are) guaranteed and we want to concentrate on the bigger picture, but for us to get where we need to be we just need to worry about Ole Miss. ' ' '
