PORTLAND, Ore. -- Defending champion Brooke Henderson shot a 7-under 65 on Thursday to take a two-stroke lead after the opening round of the LPGA Cambia Portland Classic on Thursday.Picking up where she left off from a year ago, when she shot a 21-under 267 to win her first LPGA tournament, Henderson, 18, hit 16 greens and made nine birdies on a warm, cloudless day at the 6,476-yard Columbia Edgewater course.Henderson said a combination of factors allows her to feel at home at Columbia Edgewater.I love tree-lined courses, and thats very much what this course is, Henderson said. With the bent grass, which is kind of what I grew up on, I really like it. It suits my eye. Then winning here, that gives me those extra vibes and adrenaline, which I think will help as the week goes on. This golf course, being out here in the Northwest, in the beautiful temperature, I like wearing long sleeves and pants.Angela Stanford, Demi Runas and Mariajo Uribe each shot 67 to trail Henderson.Runas, whose best career finish is a tie for 25th, and Uribe are looking for their first LPGA victories. Stanford lost in a playoff in the 2003 U.S. Womens Open at Pumpkin Ridge, which has previously played host to the Portland Classic. Uribe and Stanford shot bogey-free rounds.Stanford, who tied for fourth last week in Arkansas, is somewhat of a surprise among the leaders. She hasnt had much success at the Portland Classic, her best finish a tie for eighth in 12 tries.Poana greens are usually not very friendly to me. Its nice to watch the ball go in the hole here. I havent always played well here, so I tried to just put that on the back burner and see if I could carry it over from last week, and it did, Stanford said.Carlota Ciganda, Jaye Marie Green, Ayako Uehara and Daniela Iacobelli shot 68. Four strokes back at 69 are No. 18 Suzann Pettersen, Sarah Jane Smith, Lee-Anne Pace, Briana Mao and Jiayi Zhou.Pettersen is a two-time Portland winner, claiming the 2011 and 2013 tournaments.No. 15 Anna Nordqvist is among 12 players at 70. No. 9 Stacy Lewis shot even-par 72, as did Austin Ernst, the 2014 Portland champion.Henderson, starting early in the morning on the back nine, was only 1-under through seven holes. But she birdied three of the next four holes, then finished on fire while playing the front nine, making consecutive birdies on holes 5 through 8. Henderson just missed a fifth consecutive birdie, sliding a 15-foot putt past the left side of the hole at the par-4 ninth.It was a bogey at the par-4, 391-yard fourth that helped ignite Hendersons string of four consecutive birdies.That was a dumb hole ... a hole with my length I could have taken advantage of, Henderson said. The bogey bothered me a little. I knew I had two par-5s coming up, so I tried to focus on them.In her last six rounds at Columbia-Edgewater, counting last years Monday qualifier, Henderson is 32-under par, all six rounds in the 60s.Last year, Henderson won the Portland Classic by eight strokes, becoming the third-youngest champion in LPGA Tour history. Since winning her maiden event, Henderson has soared to become No. 2 ranked, and two weeks ago won the Womens PGA Championship.Henderson is attempting to become Portlands first back-to-back champion since Annika Sorenstam won the 2002 and 2003 tournaments.The Portland Classic is normally played in late August, but moved up because the LPGA is taking three weeks off for the Olympics. The Portland stop is typically popular among the tours best players, but with the U.S. Open scheduled for next week in California, only 13 of the worlds top 50 entered this year.The Portland Classic is the LPGA Tours longest-running non-major, now in its 45th year. The purse is $1.3 million, with $195,000 going to the winner.Air Max 97 Womens Clearance . -- Yogi Ferrell orchestrates pretty much everything in Indianas offence. Nike Air Max 95 White Sale Mens .

WINNIPEG -- Blue Bomber defensive lineman Bryant Turner had a few frightening moments in Montreal last week when he paid the price for one of his hits and had to be rushed to hospital. "It was pretty scary," he said Tuesday, after being named the CFLs defensive player of the week for his part in the 19-11 Bomber win that lifted the team to a 1-1 record. Turner sacked Alouettes quarterback Anthony Calvillo three times and had two other tackles but after his last hit of the night, he found himself gasping for breath. "It was hard to catch my breath and I dont know, that was a pretty important thing I needed right then." He was put on oxygen and rushed to a Montreal hospital where he spent the night waiting for a heart specialist to look him over. The story has a happy ending though. "Everything checked out to be normal. Tests had to be run basically." In the end, he was diagnosed with sprained ligaments in his chest and his sternoclavicular joint. He will miss Saturdays game in Guelph against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and late cut Marquis Frazier has been called back to take his place. "I do have some big shoes to fill with BT going down," Frazier said after practice Tuesday. "Its terrible I get my shot off of injury but Im going to try to make the most of it and do the best I can do." Frazier was one of those players who almost made it after training camp, said coach Tim Burke. "Its hard to replace Bryant but Marquis will do a good job," he said. "He was one of the guys we had to send home because we didnt have enough roster spots but we liked him a lot." The Bomber defence received most of the credit for the teams firrst win this season.dddddddddddd Their offence seems to be still finding its feet. "Its a lot on my shoulders but the coaches have confidence in me, they saw what I can do," Frazier said of the need to step up and maintain the high level of play the Winnipeg defence has shown. Bryant said he was excited to hear about the player-of-the-week honour, his first in his three years in the CFL. "Im hoping to be ready for Toronto, Its pretty much a day-to-day thing," he said. The Argonauts visit Winnipeg July 19. The Bombers are also without one of their top receivers. Veteran Terrence Edwards is out for an indefinite period with a shoulder injury and is listed as week to week. "Im going to guess it will be more than one week but I dont know," said Burke. Either Isaac Anderson or Doug Pierce are expected to replace Edwards. The Bombers have a pretty deep talent pool at receiver, both import and non-import, and one surprising star this year has been Jade Etienne. He had caught exactly one pass in his CFL career until this season when he was the teams leading receiver with 79 yards in their 38-33 home-opener loss. With teams focusing more on Chris Matthews, last seasons rookie of the year, Etienne has had chances to get open and Burke says their 2011 CFL draft pick and Regina native has matured. "He obviously physically got a little bit better but I think mainly he just grew up . . Hes got more confidence in himself," Burke said. "His work habits are great." Burke also said they will also add a few new wrinkles Saturday to provide more protection for quarterback Buck Pierce, who was sacked five times in last weeks win in Montreal. ' ' '
