The best antidote for Cristie Kerr's head cold was a hot new putter. The nine-time LPGA Tour winner shot a 6-under 66 on Thursday in the first round of the Wegmans LPGA, giving her a one-stroke lead over Canada's Alena Sharp at the tricky, tree-lined Locust Hill course.

Kerr made birdie at the second hole and pulled into a tie with Creamer and playing partner Soo-Yun Kang, recent winner at the Safeway. Until the 11th hole there wasn't alot of movement on the leaderboard. Then Kerr started a birdie run which lasted from the 11th through the 13th holes. Cristie wanted to make sure she won this tournament, deliberately taking her time with every shot and conferring with her caddie and backing off a shot when she felt uncomfortable. This visibly upset her playing partners as they tromped ahead of her as she analyzed and visualized her shots.
