South Korean golfer shoots 61 to lead LPGA Thailand

Storming South Korean Somi Lee has surged to a three-shot halfway lead at the LPGA Thailand after falling short of posting a rare round of 59.

Lee had to settle for a spectacular second-round 11-under-par 61 after lighting up the Old Course at Siam Country Club in Pattaya on Friday.

Swedish legend Annika Sorenstam is the only woman to have shot a sub-60 score on the LPGA Tour, achieving the mighty feat with a 13-under 59 in the second round en route to victory at the 2001 Standard Register PING in Phoenix, Arizona.
