Australian Norris Leads by Two Strokes at Maekyung Open
SEOUL — Australian Jason Norris will take a two-shot lead into Sunday's final round of the Maekyung Open as he bids to become the first non-Korean to win the tournament in a decade.
Norris struggled to a level-par 72 but it was enough to lead at seven-under after 54 holes as overnight co-leader and local favourite Moon Kyong-jun carded a 74 to drop into second place at Namseoul Country Club.
"It has been a while since I led after three rounds," said 42-year-old Norris, who is hoping to break the local hegemony at the 1 billion won ($917,000) event.
