Sorenstam tied for MasterCard Classic lead

Annika Sorenstam made her 2006 debut in smashing style, firing a bogey-free five-under-par 67 to grab a share of the lead after the first round of the MasterCard Classic.

Situated in the mountains, the Bosque Real Country Club course is a layout of nearly 7,000 yards with dips and inclines that can make it tough on players required to walk the course. The LPGA Tour waived the no-cart rule, which also helped the pace of play.
