SAN FRANCISCO -- Lexi Thompson needed to get her mind right before she could her golf game back and now is in position to win her first second career major.
Thompson shot a bogey-free 5-under 66 on Saturday to take the lead into the final round of the U.S. Women's Open for the first time in her career with a one-shot edge over teenager Yuka Saso.
"I haven't played to my standards and what I need and I just realized that I needed to change my mindset," Thomson said. "It was only hurting me. Obviously, I needed to work on some technical things in my game and everything, but the mental side was really getting to me.
