-

ROGERS, Arkansas – South Korea’s Song-Hee Kim finished with a 3-under 68 Saturday for a two-shot lead over Angela Stanford at the P&G Beauty NW Arkansas Championship.

Kim is at 9 under for the tournament heading into the final round.

Jennifer Rosales shot a one-under par 71 to fall nine strokes off Kim as the Filipino shotmaker shared 39th place with nines others at 141.

“I had to be patient today,” she said. “I made a lot of up-and-downs, and I made a lot of good par putts.”

Stanford shot a 69. Na Yeon Choi of Korea shot a 65 for the day’s low round and was tied for third with two other players, a stroke behind Stanford.

Kim hit only 6 of 13 fairways in the second round of the 54-hole event, but she’s in good position to win for the first time on the LPGA Tour. (AP)
