South Korean Mirim Lee has a one-shot lead in the third round of the LPGA Tour's Kia Classic in California.
Lee fired a five-under 67 to be 13 under for the tournament, with compatriot Mi Jung Hur in outright second after she made a 67-foot putt on the final hole to sign for a 66.
Another South Korean, In Gee Chun, is tied third at 10 under with American Cristie Kerr, who was locked for the lead after the first round.
Brittany Lincicome made an early run with four birdies and an eagle in her first eight holes to get to 10 under before she had two bogeys on the back nine in a round of 67 that tied her with Austin Ernst and Karine Icher at nine under.
Kerr, the 2015 Kia champion, had her most erratic round of the tournament, a one-under 71.
The best-placed Australian is Sue Oh, who had a round of 69, and sits on four under and tied 31st.
