ORLANDO, Fla., Nov. 18 (UPI) -- Na Yeon Choi shot a 1-under-par 71 Friday that kept her one shot in front after two rounds of the LPGA Titleholders.

Choi, who won a tour event in Malaysia last month, posted a 36-hole total of 7-under 137 at the Grand Cypress Resort..

Sandra Gal was alone in second at 138 following a round of 69. Hee Young Park and Paula Creamer shared third at 140.

Gusty winds made scoring conditions difficult and only four players in the field broke 70. Gal did so by firing a 4-under 32 on the back nine.

World No. 1 Yani Tseng struggled to a 76 that left her in a tie for 21st place at 146.
