CARNOUSTIE, Scotland (AP) Meena Lee of South Korea overcame wet conditions to shoot a 7-under 65 Thursday for a two-stroke clubhouse lead in the first round of the Women's British Open.

She had seven birdies and no bogeys in her round played mainly in a heavy rain.

Two strokes back was American Brittany Lincicome, who started her round in good conditions in the morning and set the early pace with a 5-under 67.

Among a group at 68 were American Angela Stanford, South Korea's Amy Yang, Germany's Caroline Masson and Sweden's Sofie Gustafson.
