South Korea's Mi Hyang Lee (R) and USA's Morgan Pressel compete on September 12, 2015 in the Evian Championship in the French Alps town of Evian-les-Bains, a major tournament on the women's calendar

Evian (France) (AFP) - It was a packed leaderboard at the end of the third round of the Evian Championship, with South Korea’s Lee Mi-Hyang at the top on ten under par 203 and teenager Lydia Ko nicely poised in her bid for history.

Lee, the halfway leader, recovered from dropping shots at the first two holes to post a 70 and she led by a shot from American Lexi Thompson (66) with Ko and Morgan Pressel another shot back in joint third on eight under.
