SYLVANIA, Ohio -- Laura Diaz got off to a surprising start at the Marathon Classic. Kurt Warner Jersey . Diaz shot a 9-under 62 for a four-stroke lead in Thursdays opening round. U.S. Open champion Michelle Wie shot a 2-over 73, 2008 Marathon winner Paula Creamer was at 72 along with another perennial contender at Highland Meadows, Morgan Pressel. The defending champion, Spains Beatriz Recari, and the worlds No. 1-ranked player, Stacy Lewis, a Toledo native, were well down the list at 1 under. "I definitely didnt have my best out there," Lewis said. Diaz sure did. "Im very happy to shoot 62; I would be lying if I said I wasnt," she said. "Its nice to get a good feeling after round one. To see the ball going in the hole, I think thats always a boost." Despite being winless in the past 12 years on the LPGA Tour, she stunned the field by birdieing her first five holes in a round that included nine birdies and no bogeys. She made a 30-footer on her fifth hole, the 14th. Then she stepped back and enjoyed the moment. "I kind of chuckled to myself -- well, out loud," she said. She had a chance at tying her career best of six consecutive birdies, but missed a 7-footer on the next hole. She added four more birdies the rest of the way to grab the big lead. Diaz, who won twice in 2002 and played on four U.S. Solheim Cup teams, has cut back on her competitive schedule in recent years while raising her two young children with her husband, Kevin Diaz. She hasnt finished inside the top 25 in a tour event since 2010. But she has regained a bit of her touch the past two outings, tying for 49th at the U.S. Womens Open at Pinehurst and then tying for 64th in Arkansas the following week. She then took off a few weeks to stay at home, watching her 8-year-old son Coopers swim meets. Daughter Lily, 4, hit the road with mom this week. "Ive been playing better this year than Ive played in the last four years, but Im still not where I would like to be," she said. "But its going in the right direction." Sharing second were second-year pro out of LSU Austin Ernst and Lee-Ann Pace, a South African who has won eight times on the Ladies European Tour. Leading the group of six players at 67 were Mo Martin and Lydia Ko. Martin stole the show at last weeks Womens British Open by capturing her first victory. She is still basking in the afterglow of that momentous win. "Im pretty tired and it still kind of feels like a dream," she said. "I was joking around with the trainers, saying, Can you massage here? Because my face hurts a little bit from smiling." Ko is a two-time winner of the Canadian Womens Open while an amateur who has already notched her first pro win this year on tour. Joining Martin and Ko at 4 under were Katie Burnett, Mariajo Uribe, Lindsey Wright and Marissa Steen. At 68 were 2012 Marathon winner So Yeon Ryu, Ai Miayazato, Julieta Granada, Ohio State grad Emma Jandel, Kelly Tan, Rebecca Lee-Bentham and Paola Moreno. Jermaine Gresham Jersey . LOUIS -- Known for his game-managing and defensive skills, Yadier Molina made another statement with his bat. Haason Reddick Jersey . Vargas (8-3) allowed four singles and two walks while striking out five, allowing only two runners from a diluted Twins lineup to reach second base. Mike Moustakas and Jarrod Dyson hit RBI singles in the second inning against Kevin Correia (4-10), and that was all Vargas needed. http://www.azcardinalsfanspro.com/Black-JJ-Nelson-Cardinals-Jersey.html?cat=900 . He looked very comfortable Wednesday night.

Sky Sports exclusively asked Stephen Wonderboy Thompson, who is due to face the winner... How can Robbie Lawler win?Wonderboy said: He needs to use his distance, use his jab. If he can last the first round when Tyron is most dangerous, if he can stop that flurry, he has a chance to win. He needs to keep Tyron on his toes, backing up, because Tyron has a very difficult time backing up on his heels. If Robbie can keep that aggression, I think he can finish Tyron Woodley. Robbie Lawler (left) must avoid a dangerous first five minutes, says Thompson Robbie has been in a few five-round wars in his past few fights so Im interested to see how durable he is.We all know hes tough and he can take some shots. But Im interested to see what type of movement Robbie is going to put on Tyron. If hes going to be the aggressor, he really needs to watch out for Tyrons explosive movement coming straight in. Is he going to use movement or is he going to be the aggressor that weve always seen? Wonderboy on Lawler How can Tyron Woodley win?Wonderboy said: He needs to use his explosive ability to land that one, big punch to change Robbies mind-set. Tyron Woodley can KO anybody with one shot, says Thompson If Tyron hits you with that shot, its definitely going to make Robbie a little bit wary of coming in. That will make time for Tyron to use his wrestling, either by getting Robbie up against the cage or in a clinch position to tire Robbie out.If Tyron can tire him out, it will make it easier to shoot for the legs aand put Robbie on his back. Josh Mauro Jersey. . If he can get Robbie on his back, he can win that fight. Tyron has got that one-hitter-quitter power. You get hit once with that shot, youre going down. Wonderboy on Woodley Wonderboys prediction: I do think Robbie is the superior fighter. Hes the guy thats been on a tear. Im hoping Robbie is going to win - he is going to win. Its been too long that Tyron hasnt stepped in the Octagon to fight, and cage rust is a real phenomenon. Thompson expects Lawler to remain welterweight champion So how would you defeat Lawler?Wonderboy said: I see him using his jab, using the mean left hand that he broke Rory MacDonalds nose with.He does have some kicks - he mostly uses a backwards roundhouse kick but he breaks people with his willpower. He takes a lot of shots and keeps on coming, breaking peoples wills and momentum. Stephen Wonderboy Thompson. Credit: Instagram @wonderboymma As you saw when he fought Rory MacDonald who hit with a bunch of shots - the next thing you know, here comes Robbie back at him, and you see the life die in Rorys eyes. Hes done that to all of his fighters.I like it when fighters are like Robbie because I move differently to everybody else. Hes going to have a harder time hitting me. I use my kicks more than the last few guys that hes fought. My side-kick will help keep Robbie at bay. If Robbie finishes Tyron and doesnt get too scuffed up, Im hoping we can do this in Madison Square Garden. Also See: UFC What happened to Holly Holm?
