(Reuters) - Chun In-gee and fellow South Korean Park Sung-hyun played through rain showers, clouds and sunshine to tie for the first-round lead at the Evian Championship in France after bogey-free rounds of eight-under 63 on Thursday.
One shot back in the fifth and final women's major of the season, being played in Evian-les-Bains, were Olympic bronze medalist Shanshan Feng of China and American rookie Annie Park.
Rookie Chun, who earned LPGA Tour membership by winning the U.S. Women's Open in 2015, hit every fairway and green on the way to her lowest round since May's Kingsmill Championship.
