S.H. Park, Liu share Founders lead, with Ko two back

PHOENIX – Sung Hyun Park isn't a big fan of birdie-fest golf. She's still awfully good at it.

''Personally, I like the difficult course better than the easy course,'' Park said through a translator.

The top-ranked Park shot her second straight 6-under 66 on Friday at the Bank of Hope Founders Cup for a share of the lead with Yu Liu in the event that honors the 13 women who founded the LPGA tour.

Coming off a victory three weeks ago in Singapore, Park birdied five of the first six holes on her final nine in perfect conditions at Desert Ridge.
