AP- Andrea Lee takes lead in bid for 2nd LPGA Portland Classic victory in 3 seasons
Andrea Lee took the lead Saturday in a bid for her second Portland Classic victory in three seasons, shooting a 5-under 67 for a one-stroke advantage over Dewi Weber and Alexa Pano.
Lee rebounded from an opening bogey to birdie five of the next eight holes in calm conditions at Columbia Edgewater. She added a birdie on the par-5 12th to get to 19 under and closed with six pars.
“I just got to stick to my game plan, try to birdie the par 5s, and maybe some of the easier holes and hole locations,” Lee said. “You just got to stay really patient out there and know that putts are going to eventually fall my way.”
