CAMBRIDGE, Ontario - Rookie Cheyenne Woods and two other golfers tied a course record with a 9-under 63 at the Manulife LPGA Classic.
The niece of PGA star Tiger Woods, Cristie Kerr and P.K. Kongkraphan share the record at Whistle Bear Golf Club with Matt Bettencourt and Jon Mills, who both shot 63 at the Canadian PGA Championship in 2005.
Woods birdied eight holes - including five of the last nine - and had an eagle and one bogey.
Laetitia Beck and Sandra Gal sit tied for fourth after Day 1 after both shooting a 8-under 64.
