Nov 13 (Reuters) - Australian teenager Minjee Lee felt right at home half a world away as she carded a three-under-par 69 to earn a one-stroke lead over four players after the second round at the Lorena Ochoa Invitational in Mexico City on Friday.
Lee, the top amateur in the world before she turned professional last year, posted a six-under 138 halfway total, with Americans Christina Kim (66) and Angela Stanford (70) and South Koreans Park In-bee (71) and Kim Sei-young (66) on five-under.
Lee, a two-time Australian amateur champion who won the LPGA Kingsmill Championship in May, has made a smooth transition to the professional game.
