PALOS VERDES ESTATES, Calif. -- Hannah Green held onto the lead Saturday in the Palos Verdes Championship after a frustrating start on the hilly, windswept course perched above the Pacific Ocean.
Three strokes ahead of Lydia Ko and three other players entering the day, Green overcame bogeys on the first two holes to shoot a 1-over 72 and take a one-shot lead over playing partner Ko into the final round.
"I got off to a horrendous start, I guess you could say," Green said. "Just short-sided myself too many times today, so I was actually pretty happy with the 1-over score.
