Two big-hitting, birdie machines will square off in the final pairing Sunday at the Marathon Classic.
Sei Young Kim and Lexi Thompson pulled away from the pack in the third round, setting up a head-to-head showdown that could feel like match play, if they pick up where they left off on Saturday.
Kim closed with four birdies over the final seven holes to shoot 5-under-par 66 and take sole possession of the lead at 16 under. She’ll be playing the final round with Thompson, who eagled the 18th to shoot 65. Thompson trails Kim by one shot.
