Welcome Back, Lorena Ochoa

Lorena is making her first LPGA Tour appearance since a lackluster effort at Interlachen in the Women's Open. In the Evian Masters, she leads after round one with a round of -7 (65). She leads by a shot over Angela Park, Sun-Ju Ahn, and Candie Kung. Five golfers are two back on -5.

Lorena has a solid history in this event, never finishing outside of the Top 5. The day did not begin that swimmingly, though. She struggled for the opening nine holes with a lone birdie at the first. Coming home, though, she made six birdies on the back side to surge in with 30 and take the lead.

"I had a break on 10 and 11. I got a really good confidence, and started feeling good over the ball and the putting," said Ochoa, explaining how she turned around the day. "And I finished making six birdies on the back, so I have no complaints. I'm really happy. I didn't make birdie on the last hole, but I made a long putt today, so it's fine."

Scoring conditions are likely to remain perfect. Angela Park, sitting in second, said, "This year the greens are more soft. I like the greens." Likely, this will become an event won by making lots of birdies.
