Canuck shoots into third spot
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- Thailand's Moriya Jutanugarn shot a 2-under 70 on Saturday to maintain a six-stroke lead, while Toronto's Rebecca Lee-Bentham moved into third at the LPGA Tour qualifying tournament.
Lee-Bentham shot a 69 at the Champions Course, and is 8 under after four rounds.
The 18-year-old Jutanugarn had a 15-under total at LPGA International. The final top 20 in the five-round event will earn full tour status.
Japan's Ayako Uehara was second, also after a 70.
Two-time tour winner Christina Kim, tied for third after the second round, followed her third-round 75 with a 73 to drop into a tie for 24th at 1 under.
Samantha Richdale (74) of Kelowna, B.C., and Izzy Beisiegel (76) of St. Hilaire, Que., both missed the 72-hole cut.
