Connelly, LeBlanc, Sharp all making round 3 news in Australia...

Here are the overnight stories and scores for the two ISPS Handa tournaments being contested in both Perth and Adelaide Australia.

LPGA/LET ISPS Handa Women's Australian Open leaderboard  http://www.lpga.com/tournaments/isps-handa-womens-australian-open/leaderboard

First to Adelaide in South Australia where after Saturday's third round of the Women's Australian Open it's the American, Lizette Salas with rounds of 68 70 71 who is the leader by 2 shots at -10, however the locals are cheering on a pair of their own, Su Oh, 70 73 68 -8 and Sarah Jane Smith 70 67 74 -8 both T2 and both looking for their first LPGA win, and their national championship to boot.

From a Canadian perspective it's Maude Aimee LeBlanc who is T5 71 68 73 -7 and Alena Sharp T10 71 69 74 -5 who are in contention going into Sunday .

Brooke Henderson shot E 73 and is T35 at E, 10 shots out of the lead. Because she made the cut right on the number, she played on her own for the first time in her career in just over three hours. Now she and sister Brittany have Saturday off and are off for " some shopping and lunch down at the beach."

Remember par is 73 for the women at Royal Adelaide and as usual the wind is making scoring very difficult. -5 68 was today's lowest score.

Consider Aussie, Brett Rumford who continued his stellar play, and at -17 he would be taking a 5 shot lead into Sunday's final round. Now he is merely the #1 seed going into the 24 man match play.
