SYLVANIA, Ohio (AP) — With a surprised hop, Laura Diaz tied Sarah Kemp for the second-round lead Friday in the Jamie Farr Owens Corning Classic. Diaz looked discouraged with the putt halfway to the final hole but then hopped in celebration when the 12-foot birdie try went in, giving her a 4-under 67 and a share of the lead with Kemp (63) at 11-under 131.

Kemp had never led in her year and a half as a pro, while Diaz is winless since two victories in 2002.
