Delacour maintains lead in LPGA Portland

LOS ANGELES: Perrine Delacour fired five birdies in a five-under par 67 on Friday (Saturday in Manila) to maintain her lead midway through the Portland Classic in pursuit of a first LPGA title.

France's Delacour, whose first-round 63 had given her a one-shot lead, again took advantage of the rain-softened Columbia Edgewater course in Portland, Oregon.
