Women's World Championship: Lin Xiyu takes one-shot lead heading into final round

China's Lin Xiyu carded a superb five-under-par 67 on Saturday to take a one-shot lead over Australia's Hannah Green and South Korea's Inbee Park heading into the final day of the HSBC Women's World Championship in Singapore.

Lin got off to a poor start with a bogey on the first hole and faltered again on the seventh, but seven birdies -- including three in the last four holes -- took her total to 14-under for the tournament at the Sentosa Golf Club.

"I wasn't really paying attention to the leaderboard because to me, the front nine was a little sketchy," Lin said.
