 Teske fired a round of 66 |
Rachel Teske had five birdies on the back nine to take a one-shot lead after three rounds of the Samsung World Championship. The Australian-born player carded a six-under-par 66 to overhaul overnight leader Se Ri Pak, who lies one stroke back with Beth Daniel.
World number one Annika Sorenstam, who shot a third-round 68, is two strokes off the pace heading into Sunday's final round at the Tournament Players Course, near Houston.
"It just feels so good to hit good shots," said Teske afterwards.
"It's so much fun to time the ball right and hit those great shots. You don't get to do that all the time, so enjoy it while you can."
Earlier in the day, Sophie Gustafson rattled off birdies on five of the first six holes to claim a share of the lead at eight-under.
But her challenge faded and she ended up with a round of 69 to find herself level with Juli Inkster, five shots behind Teske.
