Jessica Korda shoots 66, catches Minjee Lee in Blue Bay LPGA (The Associated Press)

HAINAN, China (AP) -- Jessica Korda made up seven strokes on Minjee Lee on Saturday for a share of the Blue Bay LPGA lead. Ariya Jutanugarn made up even more ground to get into the final group Sunday at Jian Lake.

Korda shot a 6-under 66 in hot, mostly calm conditions off Hainan Clear Water Bay, four days after Typhoon Sarika hit the South China Sea beach resort. The 23-year-old American had five birdies in a six-hole stretch in the middle of the round and got up-and-down for another on the par-5 18th.
