Australian golfer Minjee Lee is four shots off the lead, going into the final round of the LPGA Tour's Women's World Championship in Singapore.
Lee shot a four-under-par 68 on Saturday in her third round to be 11 under for the tournament. She is in a tie for third with Canadian Brooke Henderson who carded a bogey-free 65.
"I had nine putts on the back nine, which is really awesome," Henderson said. "Just a great day and got up-and-down when I needed to and climbed the leaderboard as much as I did today. I'm very happy on moving day."
Nelly Korda also shot a seven-under 65 to take the outright lead, after Danielle Kang made her first bogeys of the tournament to slip back to second.
Korda had eight birdies and one bogey as she finished on 15-under 201 at the Sentosa Golf Club.
Aged 19, she only joined the LPGA Tour last year and is chasing her first victory in what would be another incredible addition to her family's remarkable sporting success.
Younger brother Sebastian won the Australian Open tennis junior boys' singles in January, 20 years after their father Petr had claimed the men's senior grand slam title. Then last week, sister Jessica won the LPGA Tour event in Thailand with a tournament-record total of 25 under.
"I'm definitely inspired by her win and it definitely motivated me a bunch," Nelly said.
"It was the first tournament of the year and, for her to come and crush it the way she did, it was definitely inspiring and, hopefully, we'll see where tomorrow takes me. She's still there. So she still has a chance. Everyone does."
Kang started the day leading by four strokes and finished trailing Korda by one after a 70. She dropped her first shot of the tournament on the 15th after going 50 holes without a bogey, then made another on 18.
Kang broke a tooth before her first round and almost missed her tee-off time on Saturday as she was lying down in the locker room.
"Everyday, it's drama. My life is a drama. I don't love drama - drama loves me!" she said. "Nothing could be perfect every day, so just got to take it and run with it."
Australia's Su Oh is well back in the field on even par in a tie for 43rd, ahead of Katherine Kirk (T48) at one over.
