EVIAN, France — Michelle Wie is tied for the lead at a tournament again.

Now she has to prove she can stay there.

Wie shot a 6-under 66 in the second round of the Evian Masters on Thursday to share the lead with Lorena Ochoa and Karrie Webb. It's the fourth time the 16-year-old from Hawaii has had a share of the lead as a professional — though she's still looking for her first victory.

"I just played more smart," said Wie, who opened with a first-round 69. "You never know what might happen."

Ochoa, the top money winner this season in women's golf, shot a 69 to get to 9-under 135. Webb had a 68 to go with her opening round 67 on the lakeside course in the Alpine foothills, where the temperature reached 94 degrees.

SENIOR BRITISH OPEN: At Turnberry, Scotland, Loren Roberts shot a 5-under 65 for a share of the first-round lead in the Senior British Open with Peter Jacobsen and Craig Stadler.

Defending champion Tom Watson struggled in his return to Turnberry with a 73.
