South Korea's Na Yeon Choi has taken the first round lead at the LPGA Tour's season-closing CME Group Titleholders championship.
Choi went one shot up on an elite, limited field made up of the Tour's top finishers this year with a seven-birdie, one-bogey, 6-under 66 at the Grand Cypress Resort in Orlando, Florida.
Her closest pursuers are American Morgan Pressel and Australia's Karrie Webb, who both shot 5-under 67s and a second American, Cristie Kerr and a Swede, Marie Hjorth, who are tied for 4th at 4-under 68.
Hjorth won this season-ending event at Grand Cypress last year when it was played as the LPGA Tour Championship ,

headlines this year with her 12 world-wide victories and two major triumphs, had a sluggish start with a 2-under 70, but she cannot be ruled out to win again. Not with her famous ability to go really low when she needs to.
Choi's first round success here keeps the 24-year-old buoyant in a season in which she has managed seven top-10 finishes in her last nine events, including a win at the Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia and a runner-up finish at the LPGA HanaBank Championship in Korea.
"I think from after the British Open I had a great feeling about my game," said Choi.

consistently (well), I think, and then especially at Mizuno I had a great final round. I shot 8-under par. And then I think I took something from Mizuno to here."

switch back at the Mizuno Classic in Japan earlier this month and it has certainly produced results. She added a 5 hybrid to her bag and took out her 5 iron in an effort to get a higher trajectory on her shots. It appeared to work in Thursday's first round as she used the club to make a good few of her birdies.
