MANILA, Philippines – Dottie Ardina birdied the last three holes at the front to fire a four-under 68 but still trailed Chinese Yu Liu by six at the start of the Thornberry Creek LPGA Classic at Thornberry Creek course in Oneida, Wisconsin Thursday (Friday in Manila). Ardina birdied two of the first four holes at the back where she teed off and appeared headed to another mediocre start after dropping a stroke on the first hole. Japanese Nasa Hataoka fired a 64 to lead seven others in joint fourth while Korean Sung Hyun Park marked her comeback as the world’s No. 1 following a victory at Walmart NW Arkansas Championship in Rogers, Arkansas last week with a 65 with six others. 11, as she turned in a 69 to be in the mix in what promises to be a scoring spree in all four days in the $2 million tournament.
