Haeran Ryu shot a 4-under 68 on Saturday to take a one-shot lead over Brooke Henderson after three rounds of the Women’s PGA Championship.
Championship Update
Ina Yoon, who entered the day with a five-shot lead, struggled early but settled down to finish with a 3-over 75 and is two shots off the pace. Dewi Weber, the 210th ranked player in the World Golf Rankings seeking her first career LPGA win, birdied three of the final four holes and is three shots back after a 4-under 68. A Lim Kim joins her there.
Nelly Korda, chasing a historic third straight major championship win, shot a 1-under 71 on a sun-drenched, but windy day at Hazeltine National Golf Club outside Minneapolis. She and Alison Lee are four shots off the lead, which history indicates is important.
The top-ranked player in the world, Korda has struggled on the greens over the first three rounds, going 7 for11 on putts between 3 and 5 feet, ranking 65th among the 68 remaining players. Ryu’s score tied for the lowest round of the day, one day after her 64 was Friday’s low score.
