HARRISON, N.Y. (AP) -- Two-time defending champion Inbee Park shot a 7-under 66 on Saturday to overtake fellow South Korean Sei Young Kim for the lead after three rounds of the KPMG Women's PGA championship.
Kim, a rookie who came into the round with a one-stroke lead, shot a 69. The two had battled all afternoon and each went into the final hole at 13-under par. But Park, who needed just 28 putts Saturday, made her seventh birdie of the day on 18, and Kim missed a 4-foot putt for par.
Park said her experience in winning this tournament each of the last two years may give her a her a bit of an advantage Sunday over her 22-year-old countrywoman.
