Featured groups have been on usga.org today since they teed off on #1, well ahead of the Fox broadcast.
So Yeon, Sei Young and Lexi Sung Hyun, Chien and Nelly
This may be a better bet than the Fox coverage. Interesting interactions (or lack thereof) between the players. Inkster-free.

I wonder if Lexi goes with the ribbon into her 20s.
Awesome eagle today.

Great tee to green round for Jeongeun6 Lee. Only missed one green, but 33 putts. But only two shots out of the lead.
So Yeon had the one double bogey early and two birdies. Still with a chance but it will be difficult.
Sei Young Kim was Sei Young Kim. Had birdies on three of the first five holes. The rest of the round four bogeys and no birdies.
Mamiko played pretty much the same as yesterday. A birdie here a bogey there even par round again. However only one shot off the lead.
Jin Young had an okay round of two under par. Probably to far back to win, but a strong finish would be nice.

I was able to watch only the last couple of hours of today's broadcast as a good friend wanted to watch the EUFA Championships League Final at a pub. Turned out the pub was crowded. We two had to share an end of a table with a family of Liverpool fans. Kudos to Rolex for allowing the tournament to be shown uninterrupted with commercial breaks.
Lexi got woke. She'll win this if she plays tomorrow like she played today. But I'll root for "Lee Sixx".
What do you think the winning score will be? Interesting after it being -6 after one round, it's only -7 after three.

Round 3 At the start of the round we had the ideal squad of Koreans in line to challenge for this trophy: the top five ranked Sisters in the world, plus world #2 Minjee Lee, and the most promising new player in Jeong Eun Lee 6. For all that, it turned out OK but not great. The good news is almost all of them are still in a place where they can win this. The generous fairways really helped the long hitters today, especially Yu Liu and Thompson. When Thompson gets psyched she can get into a zone, but it doesn't take much to cause that house of cards to fall apart, so we'll see if the Sisters can make a run. And I have a feeling that it is time for Thompson to have her truly bad round this week. We'll see... Other than Inbee, who was a lost cause today, the Sisters did fine. Jeong Eun was fantastic tee to green and managed some nice par saves. But boy, it sure seemed like she missed a lot of short, makeable birdie tries. If she can just dial in her putter a little, she's in great position to win this thing: third to last group, no Thompson fans to contend with, and, to be frank, a bunch of untested players ahead of her. I'm rooting like heck for her to make this her breakthrough statement. How about a 66? That would be apropos I think. GO LUCKY SIX!!!! Sei Young was typical for her: a bunch of great shots, a lot of terrible stuff, scrappy and hanging in there. It sucks she fell all the way to t12, but it would not surprise me one bit to see her rally massively Sunday. Sung Hyun Park, at five back, is also in her favorite position: a few back on Sunday. With her length, she could collect an eagle or two and steal this one. Jin Young was solid, but she has to stop bogeying the par 3s. Also five back, she has seemingly been waiting all week to have a great round. All the parts are there, she just needs to bring them together when it counts. I was counting So Yeon out, but she rallied beautifully and is just four back. So Yeon loves disappointing Thompson, why not do it again? After all her struggles this year, it would be incredible for So Yeon to get this one. GO SO YEON!!! Minjee should be right in this, but she can't stop the 'others' on her scorecard. She is certainly capable of a low score at any time. Go Sisters!!!!! HWAITING! Lucky Six Jin Young Ko Jenny Shin Chella Choi Mi Hyang Lee Haeji Kang Jeong Eun Lee 5 is also having a decent week -- even par Amateur Jiwon Jeon

Jeongeun Lee 6's post round interview. I get the feeling the translator is not doing a great job -- I doubt Lucky Six said she wants to focus on three putts on the par fives! Jeongeun Lee 6 round 3 interview

I don't have time to watch the golf this weekend, but Yu Liu is playing ShopRite...hope to get a chance to see her vicious ball striking with the irons up close.

Hopefully the commercial free coverage will be the future of golf broadcasts. It’s incredible.

I like how you describe Minjee game as having too many others. Sometimes I think she forgets why she is out there.
Anyway good luck to So Yeon and others. Time for us to hit the road, so wont be watching the final round.
