CANADIAN LAKES, Mich., July 1, 2015 – Paola Moreno holds a three shot lead at the end of the first round of the Tullymore Classic.

Moreno credited her putting as the key to the bogey free round of 64:

“I made really good putts. I gave myself a lot of good chances and I made eight birdies so I’m pretty happy today with that result.”

“I haven’t had my best finishes so far but I’m playing well,” Moreno explained. “I’d say my game is in a good place and I just want to take it one shot at a time. I don’t want to go ahead and think about what could happen or not.”

Moreno, who has been on the LPGA TOUR the past three seasons, is a native of Columbia, and a USC grad. She is looking to earn her card back by finishing in top ten at the end of the Symetra Tour season.

At three back are Allison Emrey and Yu Liu. Four other players — Emma Talley, Pavarisa Yoktuan, Alejandra Cangrejo and Erynne Lee – are four back heading into Saturday’s second round.

Second round play begins on Saturday at 7:30 a.m. off of the first and 10th tees. There will be a cut to the top 60 and ties following second round play. The final round will begin at 7:30 a.m. on Sunday and is expected to conclude at approximately 4:30 p.m. with a trophy ceremony on the 18th green.
