Jeongeun Lee6 extended her lead to five shots on Saturday at the Amundi Evian Championship and has a chance to break In Gee Chun’s record for the lowest major score in relation to par. Chun shot 21 under to win the 2016 Evian Championship.
Despite a shakier start to her third round – even par through 10 holes – compared to the first two days, Lee6 had luck on her side, holing out from 88 yards on the par-4 11th.
Lee6 birdied the 15th hole to go 3 under for the day, but two holes later, on the par-4 17th, she hit her worst shot of the tournament, pull-hooking an iron from an uphill lie that almost went out-of-bounds.
