Leona Maguire will begin her final round at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship in the lead on 7-under par with fellow Irishwoman Stephanie Meadow lurking just two shots behind.
Maguire, who held the lead at the halfway point after a blistering round of 68 on Friday to move ahead of the chasing pack, started with a bang when she opened her third round with a Birdie. A second Birdie followed on the Par-5 seventh as she moved to 7-under par.
The Cavan native gave that shot back with a sloppy Bogey on 11 before picking up another Birdie at 15. She found trouble off the tee on the Par-5 17 and failed to get up-and-down out of the bunker to save her par.
