Last-Hole Bogey Costs Ko Outright Lead in Vancouver

Aug 22 (Reuters) - World number two Lydia Ko squandered the outright lead with a bogey on her last hole at the Canadian Pacific Women’s Open on Saturday and faces a final round shoot-off for the title with playing partner Candie Kung.

The New Zealand teenager, who entered the round two shots adrift of overnight leader Kung, took the lead after a solid front nine at Vancouver Golf Club but the final-hole blip left her 12-under with the Taiwan-born American.

“That was my first bogey in two days. I’ll take that,” Ko told reporters after her three-under 69.
