Charley Hull carded five birdies and three bogeys in the third round of the ANNIKA driven by Gainbridge to maintain her lead. At the end of her round, Hull had this to say (via LPGA Tour News Service)

"I played pretty solid. I felt like I played well all day. I had a bit of an unlucky shot on the par 3 (15). Just kind of caught the downslope and just bounced on. I just felt like I was pretty solid all day. Shame to finish on a bogey, but it was a good up-and-down."

Weiwei Zheng carded the best score of the day (8-under) to move up 20 places on the leaderboard and into a tie for second place in the ANNIKA driven by Gainbridge. The Chinese player carded nine birdies and one bogey.
