France's Joanna Klatten Leads Kingsmill Championship

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. — France's Joanna Klatten had five birdies in a six-hole stretch and finished with a 6-under 65 on Thursday to take the first-round lead in the LPGA Tour's Kingsmill Championship.

Klatten birdied Nos. 3-6 and 8 and closed with a par on No. 9 on Kingsmill Resort's River Course.

"I made a few bombs, which is nice, but it was just solid," Klatten said. "I've been playing pretty good lately. Just struggled with the putting the last few tournaments, but today it was fixed.

"I definitely had luck on my side today. I had good breaks and it feels good.
