Late birdies give Nanna Koerstz Madsen lead in Thailand

CHONBURI, Thailand — Nanna Koerstz Madsen birdied her last two holes to take a one-shot lead after three rounds of the LPGA Thailand on Saturday.

The 55th-ranked Dane's error-free 6-under 66 gave her a 54-hole total of 21-under 195 in humid conditions after lightning and rain disrupted play for 90 minutes in the afternoon at the Siam Country Club Pattaya Old Course.

“I didn’t make many mistakes. I hit a lot of greens," the 27-year-old Madsen said. "I would love to make a couple more putts but I’m happy with the round in overall.”

Lin Xiyu (66) of China and Celine Boutier (67) of France trail by one stroke.
