Sylvania, Ohio — Jaravee Boonchant holed out from 128 yards for eagle on her second shot of the round and had a 7-under 64 on Thursday for a share of the first-round lead with Linn Grant in the LPGA Tour’s Dana Open.

“I was just on the first cut and I was like, 'OK, this shot, just anywhere on the green,’” Boonchant said about the eagle on No. 10. “...and the ball just happened to hit one bounce and hop in the hole.”

Boonchant also had seven birdies and two bogeys at Highland Meadows. The 24-year-old Thai player is winless on the LPGA Tour after helping Duke take the 2019 NCAA title.
