Swinging Skirts LPGA Taiwan leaderboard http://www.lpga.com/leaderboard
Nelly Korda shot a -3 69 to share the lead with Taiwan's Wei-Ling Hsu after three rounds of the LPGA Taiwan Championship on Saturday.
Playing in front of a home crowd, Hsu finished with an E 72 on Saturday after shooting 68 and 67 in the first two rounds.
Korda and Hsu have a total of -9 207 and both will be looking for their first LPGA titles in Sunday's final round at the Ta Shee Golf and Country Club.
"I think I'll definitely be a little nervous," Korda said of Sunday's round. "Anyone who is in contention on a Sunday will obviously feel those types of feelings. But I'll also be excited and just happy to be in that position."
She will be playing in the final round with Hsu, who she knows will be the crowd favorite. "Wei-Ling was playing right behind me (today), but you heard a couple roars," she said. "I think it's awesome to see how much they support women's golf out here and just how they support a home player is really great. It's really nice to see."
Korda is the sister of fellow LPGA player Jessica Korda.
Five players are within two shots of the leaders: Jin Young Ko (69), Bronte Law (69), Megan Khang (70), Lydia Ko (72) and Jodi Ewart Shadoff (73).
Brooke Henderson has moved into the top 25 with rounds of 70 74 73 +1. Her stats indicate she has been driving the ball very well and accurately with 36/42 fairways hit, but she is just 36/54 in greens in regulation and has used 27 32 32 = 91 total putts
By way of example the leader Hsu has used 29 24 25 = 71 putts through 3 rounds.
