Lincicome one off the pace at Kingsmill (Reuters)
(Reuters) - Brittany Lincicome took advantage of rain-softened conditions and a deft touch on the greens as she charged into contention at the Kingsmill Championship on Thursday in Williamsburg, Virginia.
The long-hitting American, who totaled just 28 putts, fired a sparkling five-under-par 66 on the River Course at Kingsmill Resort in pursuit of her first LPGA win of the year.
With the course playing long and soft after heavy rain this week, Lincicome racked up six birdies and a lone bogey to finish the opening round level with defending champion Minjee Lee of Australia, a stroke behind pacesetting Japanese Mika Miyazato.
