YANGMEI, Taiwan(AP)–Paced by a hole-in-one, defending champion Suzann Pettersen shot a 3-under 69 to take a five-stroke lead in the second round at the Sunrise Championship Friday.

Pettersen’s ace on the 133-yard second hole helped her finish at 7 under after 36 holes, comfortably ahead of Sun Young Yoo and Carlota Ciganda at 2 under.

”It was a very good shot,” the Norwegian said. “I called the shot, hit it exactly how I wanted and was fortunate enough that I had a good break.”
