the thai golfer Atthaya Thitikul, 19, led the tournament in Wonju (South Korea) by covering the third round in 67 shots for a total of 15 under par giving her a one-shot advantage heading into the final day in search of her third victory on the LPGA circuit.
the American Andrea Lee, leader on Friday, now shares second place along with New Zealander-born South Korean Lydia Ko, both of whom have one more shot than Thitikul.
The Thai leader had an impressive start on Thursday, with a 63 shot, but the next day he needed eight more and surrendered first place, which he now regained.
Thitikul is the youngest golfer to win a professional tournament. She achieved this in July 2017 at the age of 14 years, 4 months and 19 days at the European Women’s Championship in Thailand, still as a novice player.
Carlota Ciganda, who was 12 strokes off the lead on Friday, produced her best run on Saturday, with a 69 stroke which put him in 45th place with a total of three under par.
