Top-ranked Yani Tseng shot a 2-under 70 for a one-shot lead after the third round in the LPGA Thailand on Saturday.
She is trying for her third tournament victory in three weeks. A 4-foot eagle putt on her finishing hole on the Pattaya Old Course at Siam Country Club lifted the Taiwanese star to a 9-under 207 total, one better than American Michelle Wie (71) and second-round leader IK Kim (72).
"It was very exciting finishing eagle, that's for sure," Tseng said. "Nice to have a one-shot lead over IK and Michelle."
Tseng double-bogeyed the second hole, but made up a shot by the turn. Three birdies spanning holes Nos. 10-15 put her in front by two, but they were offset by consecutive bogeys on Nos. 16 and 17, and the closing eagle saved her round.
