Yani Tseng Takes 4-Shot Lead Into Final Round at Women's British Open

Filed under: LPGASOUTHPORT, England (AP) -- Yani Tseng shot her third straight 4-under 68 on Saturday, and will take a four-stroke lead into the final round of the Women's British Open.

The 21-year-old star from Taiwan took advantage of the short, 472-yard, par-5 final hole by hitting an 8-iron to within 20 feet with her second shot. She rolled in the eagle putt to finish off her round, doubling her cushion over Australian Katherine Hull.

"I played really well again," said Tseng, who is at 12 under and has just one bogey through 54 holes. "I really enjoyed the big crowd out there. They clap on every shot and I showed them my big smile all the way around."

Hull played a flawless third round, including give straight birdies to finish with a 66.

"A great way to finish. I'll always remember this round," Hull said. Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Commentsaluminum boats smart boards snowboard jackets
