On Thursday and Friday Minjee Lee could do no wrong, but as is often the case, today in warm, calm conditions, she could do no right.

Standing on the first tee after rounds of 65 67, with a 6 shot lead over her nearest rival, the 20 year old Aussie star didn't know she was about to shoot a messy 73 to let the rest of the field back into the tournament, including American Jessica Korda who's 66 moved her to -11, T1 with Lee.

Lurking just 2 shots behind at -9 is 20 year old Thai star, Ariya Jutanugarn with the round of the day, a 65 as she looks for her sixth victory of the season. She leads the tour in victories and has caught and passed Lydia Ko in the player of the year points race.

Brooke Henderson who was in that race, continued her steady play as she birdied three of last five holes for a 70, -2 total good for T9.

Alena Sharp 73 72 76 +5 T41,  Maude Aimee LeBlanc 84 74 71 +13.
