SYLVANIA, Ohio: Chinese rookie Ruoning Yin turned her irritation over a bogey into six birdies over his last 10 holes Thursday for a 6-under 65 and a three-way tie for the lead in the Dana Open.

Hye-Jin Choi, who like Yin earned her LPGA Tour card last year for the first time, and Carlota Ciganda of Spain also had 65 at Highland Meadow.

The large group at 66 included Lexi Thompson, Lydia Ko and Leona Maguire of Ireland. The 19-year-old Yin has been coping with a wrist injury and missed four straight cuts on the LPGA Tour.

Her last appearance was in mid-July, though she played two Epson Tour events. Her one goal was to play bogey-free, and that ended on the par-3 eighth hole. “I was so mad after that,” she said. “I just tried to make some birdies.” Choi did most of her work early in the round and was poised to take the lead until the South Korean had to settle for pars on the back-to-back par 5s at Highland Meadow.
