Women's PGA champion Brooke Henderson of Smith Falls, Ont., ended the day one shot ahead of Ko at 2-under. Ko and Ariya have a good chance at Evian of taking the Annika Major Award, which rewards the major winner with the best combined record at all five majors of the season, and is named after 10-time major winner Annika Sorenstam. Ko revealed herself to the golfing world at the Evian in 2013, when she finished second as a 16-year-old amateur. "It's a good thing my wood shots and chip shots were good enough," said Ko, who last year became the youngest man or woman to be ranked No. Pettersen had a difficult day, joining Ariya and American Lexi Thompson, last year's runner-up, at 2 over.
