MELBOURNE, Australia — American teenager Jessica Korda moved into position for a two-sport, father-daughter Australian double, shooting an even-par 73 in windy conditions Saturday to take the Women’s Australian Open lead at Royal Melbourne.

Korda, the 18-year-old daughter of 1998 Australian Open tennis champion Petr Korda, had a 4-under 215 total in the LPGA Tour opener on the historic club’s difficult Composite Course. She opened with rounds of 72 and 70.

“It would mean a lot,” Korda said about following her father with a Melbourne victory. “My Dad was world No. 2. I told him I want to beat that. It would be a great accomplishment, an awesome thing.”
