South Korea’s Mi Hyang Lee, a Monday qualifier veteran whose last LPGA victory came more than five years ago, holds a one-shot lead after the first round of the DIO Implant LA Open on Thursday, March 30, in Palos Verdes Estates, Calif.

Lee shot a 6-under-par 65 at Palos Verdes Golf Club, putting her in front of American Megan Khang and South Korea’s Hyo Joo Kim, who both shot 5 under.
