France's Boutier and Icher share lead at LPGA team event

France's Celine Boutier and Karine Icher shot a best ball eight-under 62 for a share of the lead at the halfway stage of the inaugural Dow Great Lakes Bay Invitational tournament.

Boutier and Icher birdied four of the first five holes and closed with three straight birdies to finish at 10-under 130 through two rounds of the first ever team event in LPGA Tour history.

"Our games complement each other really well," Boutier said Thursday. "When I was struggling a bit, she was there to save the team, and the opposite, so it was pretty good."
