SHIMA, Japan (AP) — South Korea’s Lee Bo-mee shot an 8-under 64 on Saturday to take a four-stroke lead after two rounds of the Mizuno Classic.

Lee, a regular on the Korean tour, had four birdies on the front nine at Kintetsu Kashikojima Country Club and added four more after the turn to finish at 10-under 134.

Rikako Morita of Japan, who briefly held the lead after an eagle on the par-5 13th, bogeyed three of the final five holes and was in second after a 68.

Angela Stanford of the United States shot a 71 and was tied for third at 4-under 140 with South Korea’s Na Yeon Choi, France’s Karine Icher and overnight co-leader Ayako Uehara of Japan.
