MIDLAND, Mich. -- Ruoning Yin of China and Atthaya Thitikul of Thailand started out on a heater and held it together on their back nine in foursomes Thursday for a 6-under 64, giving them a share of the lead with two other teams after the opening round of the Dow Championship.
Ally Ewing and Jennifer Kupcho, Solheim Cup teammates but never partners, had an eagle late in their round and joined the Thai duo of Chanettee Wannasaen and Jaravee Boonchant as the other teams at 64.
The tournament is the only official team event on the LPGA Tour schedule.
