MOBILE, Ala. -- Jessica Korda shot a 7-under 65 on Friday to take a one-stroke lead over Hall of Famer Karrie Webb after the second round of the Mobile Bay LPGA Classic. Korda had seven birdies in her second straight bogey-free round to reach 13 under on The Crossings course at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trails Magnolia Grove complex. "Im hitting the ball good and Im having a lot of fun out there," said Korda, coming off a two-week break to rest a wrist injury. "I feel really comfortable out here. This is definitely one of the stops I wanted to come back to and I hope we can keep this event as long as possible because I really like it." The daughter of former tennis players Petr Korda and Regina Raichrtova, the 20-year-old Korda won the 2012 Womens Australian Open for her lone LPGA Tour title. "Right now its Friday, so I think really the tournament starts back nine on Sunday," Korda said. "So right now, its great to have the lead and I feel good." Webb also had a bogey-free round, birdieing the last three holes for a 63. The 38-year-old Webb won the last of her 38 LPGA Tour titles in 2011. The Australian played alongside Korda and Brittany Lincicome the first two rounds. "When youre playing with Jess and Brittany, if I hit a really good one Im 20 yards behind them," Webb said. "In certain parts of the golf course where they can carry parts that I cant, Im 40 yards behind them, so Im the little short one out there trying to keep up with the big girls." Korda birdied three of the four par-5 holes. "I reached every single one today, so thats been really nice," Korda said. "Yeah, we give Webby a hard time. She did outdrive me on the first hole today and shes like, Whats going on? And Im like, Did you work out last night? ... We were just keeping it kind of light out there and having a good time." Chella Choi was two strokes back at 11 under after a 66. "Today and yesterday my putting was really good," Choi said. "My confidence is better." Sydnee Michaels had a course-record 62 to join Pornanong Phatlum and Thidapa Suwannapura at 10 under. "It feels so goood to finally have a good round because Ive been struggling the last few weeks and going through some swing changes," Michaels said.dddddddddddd "The week off last week I just said, You know what, Im just going to go back to what feels good. So I hit a lot of balls and just kind of got back to where I was feeling good over the ball again. So, it feels so good to finally have a good round." Phatlum shot a 65, and Suwannapura had a 67. Lisa McCloskey shot a 68 to reach 7 under after she and her mother, Maria, were involved in a multicar accident on their way home after the first round. The tour rookie and former University of Southern California player had an array of scrapes from the airbags and a sore thumb and only got about 30 minutes of sleep. "I think I came out here with no expectations, just-make-the-cut kind of thing," McCloskey said. "I probably would have been happy with even par or a couple over. But I dont know, the putter was really working for me on the front nine, and then the back nine things kind of slowed down. I think I kind of got a little bit tired, but I finished with two really good pars, so Im happy." Defending champion Stacy Lewis was 4 under after her second straight 70. She had a double bogey in the par-3 14th after hitting in the water. "I made too many mistakes and you cant do it when people are shooting lights out," said the second-ranked Lewis, the winner this year in consecutive events in Singapore and Phoenix.
