Kim shoots 64, leads Jutanugarn by a shot on LPGA Tour (The Associated Press)

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) -- Christina Kim took advantage of favorable conditions Thursday morning, shooting an 8-under 64 to top the leaderboard in the inaugural Volvik Championship.

She didn't expect to stay there.

''I wouldn't be surprised if someone gets me by two,'' Kim said.

No one did.

Ariya Jutanugarn, coming off consecutive wins on the LPGA Tour, was a shot back after her morning round at Travis Pointe Country Club.

The course conditions got tougher later in the day when the wind picked up and the pins got tougher to shoot for on drying greens.
