Stacy Lewis shot an unblemished round of eight-under-par 64 for a three-shot advantage over Amy Yang after the second round of the LPGA Thailand on Friday.
Lewis, the world No.3, enjoyed four straight birdies from holes 4-7, plus four more on the back nine, to produce a two-day total of 14-under 130. She also led at Siam Country Club at the halfway stage in 2013, and finished third.
"It really was a pretty easy day," Lewis said. "I didn't cause myself too much stress."
Yang shot five birdies and eagled the par-5 10th in a 66 to lie at 11 under overall. She has three top-five finishes in her past four tournaments.
Four players were another three shots back at eight under; Germany's Caroline Masson, South Koreans Jenny Shin and Mirim Lee plus Thailand's Ariya Jutanugarn.
Former world No.1 and two-time champion Yani Tseng of Taiwan, an overnight leader with Lewis and Brittany Lang, carded 72 to drop to six under, while Lang shot a 73 to be at five under.
