Julieta Granada played bogey-free in a tough wind at the CME Group Tour Championship on the Tiburon Course for a 66 that gave her a two-shot lead over Sandra Gal in the LPGA Tour's final tournament.

The other event going on, is the Race to CME Globe, which pays a $1 million bonus to the winner. Only the top nine players in the standings can win it, and Granada isn't one of them. She still hopes to close out the season with her first victory in eight years.
The top three players, Stacy Lewis, Inbee Park and 17-year-old Lydia Ko need only to win the tournament for the $1 million bonus. Lewis is atop the standings, Park and Ko each shot 71. Lewis is 3 shots behind the leader after her opening 69.
Round 2 is underway as I write this..
