Women's British Open Round 1

Scoring is excellent almost 3/4 of the way through the first round of the Ricoh Women's British Open. Juli Inkster fired -7 at Sunningdale to hold a one shot lead over four golfers.

For those of you wondering about the Asian contingent, three of the four second place players are Asian. On the course now, Kristy McPherson and Stacy P. have nice rounds going at -5.

Wondering if Inkster's lead can hold? She may seem to have an affinity for links golf, but she does not really have the results to back up that love. In 10 WBO starts, her best finish is T4 in 2006. She has two missed cuts. At Sunningdale, she has T12, MC, and T25.

Also, Lorena Ochoa is playing fairly well to start her defense. She is at -3 through her first round. Helen Alfredsson is tied with Ochoa. Paula Creamer is -2 thru 10. Annika fired even par and is seven off of the pace.
