| Lees lead 5A girls golf after blowing through first round Posted: 25 May 2010 12:22 PM PDT AURORA — Once the first round of the Class 5A girls state golf tournament finally was complete, it was the "Lees" who stood strong against the wind. Resuming play early Tuesday morning after high winds forced a suspension of the first round on Monday afternoon, the first-round leader board was dominated by Lees at the CommonGround Golf Course. Overland's Somin Lee held the first-round lead after firing a 2-under-par 71, a score that was even more impressive given the windy conditions that still prevailed on Tuesday. Patricia Lee of Highlands Ranch finished the first round in second-place with a 1-over 74, followed by Shinwoo Lee of Cherry Creek (77) and Sarah Moore of Arapahoe (78). All three Lees finished in the top 10 at state last season, with Somin Lee and Shinwoo Lee finishing in a tie for third and Patricia Lee finishing in a tie for eighth. Moore finished in a tie for sixth last year. Last year's runner-up, Andi Hibbert of Lakewood, finished the first round with an 11-over 84. Arapahoe topped the team standings after the first round, leading second-place Cherry Creek 242-245. The complete team scores through the first round: Arapahoe 242, Cherry Creek 245, Heritage 256, Skyline 260, Chatfield 262, Highlands Ranch 266, Fort Collins 276, Poudre 281, Ralston Valley 281, ThunderRidge 303.

| D-Day looms for golf's New Zealand Open Posted: 25 May 2010 11:51 AM PDT By NATHAN BURDON - The Southland TimesNew Zealand Golf hopes to confirm within the next two weeks which tour the New Zealand Open will be co-sanctioned with – a decision that will dictate when and where the next event is held. Based at entrepreneur Michael Hill's Arrowtown course for the past three years, the New Zealand Open has been co-sanctioned with both the European and then the United States Nationwide Tours in recent years. The deal with the Nationwide Tour concluded, along with Hill's hosting agreement and a deal with promoters Tuohy and Associates, at the end of the January's 2010 Open, which was won by United States tour rookie Robert Gates. New Zealand Golf acting chief executive Dean Murphy had hoped to have shored up which tour the country's flagship golf event would be associated with at the start of this month. "It's taken a bit longer than we thought as the tour sanctioning bodies around the world confirm their schedules for next year," Murphy said. "Obviously, that dictates where we might fit in terms of a tour sanctioning programme and that dictates what date our tournament might be and what options are open to us." Murphy said New Zealand Golf's preference was to remain part of the Nationwide Tour, the second tier below the PGA Tour. "Once we have a tournament tour sponsor, then we look at venues and sponsors and all those sorts of things. "We are doing those things concurrently but really it's driven by who the tour partner is going to be." Hill has expressed his desire for the Open to become a permanent fixture at The Hills, but Julian Robertson's Cape Kidnappers course in the Hawke's Bay is also considered a contender. Negotiations with Tuohy and Associates were continuing, Murphy said. "A lot of it is dependent on what tour we sanction with. That dictates the prizemoney we need, it dictates the size of the budget we need for the tournament. "If we are a Nationwide Tour, we need US$650,000 (NZ$970,000); if it's OneAsia, it needs US$1 million. If it's just an Australasian tour-sanctioned event, we probably only need NZ$500,000."

| Golf-Fifteen players join U.S. Open field through world ranking Posted: 24 May 2010 03:05 PM PDT NEW YORK, May 24 (Reuters) - Thirteen foreign golfers were among 15 additional players to earn exemptions into the U.S. Open golf championship next month at Pebble Beach, the U.S. Golf Association said on Monday. Australians Robert Allenby and Adam Scott, South Korean K.J. Choi and Camilo Villegas of Colombia were among the players in the top 50 in world rankings who had not yet qualified for the June 17-20 championship. Americans Anthony Kim and Ben Crane were also added to the field through their position in world rankings. The additions brought the number of exempt players to 78. Other international players clinching rankings exemptions were Sweden's Peter Hanson and Robert Karlsson, Spain's Miguel Angel Jimenez and Alvaro Quiros, South Africans Louis Oosthuizen and Charl Schwartzel, Thongchai Jaidee (Thailand), Graeme McDowell (Britain) and Edoardo Molinari (Italy). The first two sectional qualifiers were held May 24 in Japan and England, where a total of 15 spots in the 156-player field were determined. Sectional qualifying in the United States will take place at 13 sites on June 7.
