10/31/2008 - Incheon, South Korea (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Katherine Hull opened with a six-under 66 Friday to grab a two-stroke lead after the opening round of the Hana Bank - KOLON Championship.
Amy Yang bogeyed two of the last five holes en route to a four-under 68. She is alone in second place and is one shot clear of Chae Young Yoon.
Christina Kim and Karen Stupples are part of a large group tied for fourth at two-under-par 70 on the Ocean Course at Sky 72 Golf Club.
Hull collected her first birdie on the par-four second. She came back two holes later with another birdie. After a pair of pars, Hull drained a birdie effort on the par-four seventh.
The Australian, who collected her first LPGA victory earlier this season at the Canadian Women's Open, parred three straight around the turn.
Hull stumbled to a bogey on the 11th. However, she bounced back with birdies on the 13th and 14th to move to minus-four. Hull birdied the par-five 16th, then closed with a birdie at the last to finish at six-under.
Yang flew out of the gate as she ran off three birdies in a four-hole stretch from the second. She parred her next four holes to turn on three-under.
Around the turn, Yang collected back-to-back birdies from the 10th to climb to five-under. She faltered to a bogey on the par-five 14th.
Yang atoned for that mistake with a birdie on the par-five 16th, but gave that stroke right back as she bogeyed the 17th to finish two back.
Christina Kim and Stupples were joined in fourth place at minus-two by Jeong Jang, Mi Hyun Kim, Candie Kung, In-Kyung Kim, Ji-Yai Shin and Ji-Na Lim.
Se Ri Pak and Jimin Kang head a group of nine players tied for 12th at minus- one.
Defending champion Suzann Pettersen struggled in the opening round as she five-over 77, which left her tied for 58th place.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect
LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.
Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.
Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
