McPherson leads at Mission Hills

Kristy McPherson is alone atop of the leaderboard at the Kraft Nabisco Championship at Mission Hills after shooting a two-under 70 move on to eight-under 208 overall.

On a day when nobody ran off with the lead, McPherson at least moved into the sole lead by opening the back nine with three straight birdies to put herself one shot ahead of Christie Kerr, who also went round in 70.
