Lids still leads. Fighting hard, her long game has been hot and cold, but she's getting up and down really well. Lots of movement behind her. Still most of the round to go so anything could happen

Great news, how are we tracking, any more?

We have cyclists racing in finals later

6:30am

Lydia is on fire inside 100 yards. Which is just as well, because her long shots are inconsistent right now. Meanwhile the overnight leader took a triple bogey, she's +5 over the first 5 holes. Brutal

Hannah Green of Australia is on some sort of crazy charge in the final round of the golf.

Hopefully she stalls when she gets close, like most of the other chasers so far.

Nice tee shot ln 7 for Lids. This seems like her kind of course. It's not especially long, she isn't penalized for a lack of length off the tee

[canefan]

Wow. Lids left her approach a long way from the flag. But she knocks her 40 door putt right in the heart of the hole to lead by 2 at -10 after 7. Her playing partners have fallen back

Finally got to see the K500. Machine-like from Carrington

She's in trouble now, takes a double bogey on 10 to stall her charge

[canefan]

Lids with a 3 shot lead, 10 holes to play

[canefan]

Lids with another birdie! Goes to -11, four shots ahead at the turn. Her nearest rival is putting to save par, could be a 5 shot lead soon. Looking serene at the moment

Edit, the Chinese golfer missed her par putt, Lids 5 ahead!

[canefan]

Lids is deadly close in. Just has to play percentages, all the chasers have stalled at the moment. Jeez I wish I had a swing tempo like hers. She’s locked in right now

[canefan]

Side note, Morgane Metraux is easy on the eye

[canefan]

Lids grazes the hole on her birdie putt. Almost grabbed another shot on the field.

[canefan]

Lids slides her par putt in the side door of the hole to preserve her 5 shot lead, after 12. Come on Lids!

[canefan]

Lids makes her first significant mistake. Put an easy approach into the water to likely drop a stroke. Uncharacteristic from Lids, just had to fire it into the heart of the green

[canefan]

Lids needs to get back on track after the double bogey on 13

[sparky]

Lydia Ko now only two shots ahead of Hensleit of Germany.

[canefan]

And suddenly looking very tight
