Golf: Thai Jutanugarn moves one ahead at Kingsmill (Reuters)

(Reuters) - Thailand's Ariya Jutanugarn birdied three of the last six holes to break clear of a tightly bunched leaderboard in Saturday's third round of the Kingsmill Championship in Williamsburg, Virginia.

Two weeks after winning her first LPGA title at the Yokohama Tire LPGA Classic in Alabama, the 20-year-old Jutanugarn fired a flawless six-under-par 65 on the rain-softened River Course at Kingsmill Resort.

The fast-finishing Thai birdied the 13th, 14th and 17th to post a 10-under total of 203, ending the day a stroke in front of South Korean Chun In-gee (62), Thailand's Pornanong Phatlum (65) and second-round leader Ryu So-yeon of South Korea (69).
