Chun on verge of making history at Evian Championship

No player has ever stood taller on the foothills of the French Alps going into the final round of the Evian Championship.

South Korea’s In Gee Chun’s climb atop the leaderboard on the summit overlooking Lake Geneva is becoming historic.

With a 6-under-par 65 Saturday, Chun is on the verge of more than winning the year’s final major. She has a chance to smash the 72-hole scoring records for men’s and women’s major championship golf.

At 19-under 194, Chun leads fellow South Korean Sung Hyun Park (67) by four shots and China’s Shanshan Feng (69) by six.
