Evian Championship 2017: Moriya Jutanugarn Moves into Lead in Saturday's Play

Moriya Jutanugarn moved into sole possession of first place at the 2017 Evian Championship on Saturday by virtue of a three-under 68 at Evian Resort Golf Club in Evian-les-Bains, France.

Jutanugarn entered the day trailing Sung Hyun Park for the lead by two strokes, but the 23-year-old native of Thailand took advantage of an inconsistent two-over round of 73 by Park.

Here is a look at the leaderboard through two rounds, with Jutanugarn leading Japan's Ayako Uehara by one shot at nine-under:

1. Moriya Jutanugarn: -9 (68)

2. Ayako Uehara: -8 (66)

3. Katherine Kirk: -7 (69)
