Tuesday, November 24
CALGARY, Alberta, Sept. 5 (UPI) -- Suzann Pettersen of Norway posted a 5-under 66 Saturday to take a five-shot lead after three rounds of the CN Canadian Women's Open.
Pettersen finished three rounds at 14-under 199 to tie the 54-hole tournament scoring record set two years ago by Lorena Ochoa.
Angela Stanford, one of Pettersen's American opponents in the Solheim Cup last month, was a distant second after shooting a 69 Saturday for a 9-under 204.
Hall of Famer Karrie Webb (68) was another stroke back at 205, and Ochoa (72) and In-Kyung Kim (69) were seven shots off the lead at 206.
Pettersen hasn't won since Oct. 28, 2007, at the Honda LPGA Thailand during a five-win season.
