JIN YOUNG KO LEADS THE FIELD AT LPGA TOUR FINALE

World No 1 Jin Young Ko leads the field heading into the weekend of the CME Group Tour Championship at Tiburon Golf Club in Florida.


South Korea's Jin Young Ko shot a five-under-par 67 on Friday, in the chilly and breezy conditions at Tiburon Golf Club, to take a one-stroke lead, at -9, over the defending champion, South Korea's Sei Young Kim, and the 2018 winner, America's Lexi Thompson, in the season-ending LPGA Tour event.

Australia's Hannah Green, who turns 24 on Sunday, shot a 4-under-par 68 on Friday to sit in solo fourth on -7.

England's Georgia Hall is a further shot back in a tie for fifth place on -6, after a brace of 69s, with Nelly Korda (USA), Cydney Clanton (USA), Austin Ernst USA), Megan Khang (USA) and Caroline Masson (SWE).

New Zealand's Lydia Ko followed her first round of 74 with the round of the day, a bogey-free 65, for a share of 11th at -5.
