“I’ve played with her a lot,” Lee told AP.
“I think I played with her every single round, so it’s probably going to be four in a row with tomorrow. She’s fast and just good all around.”
Further down the leaderboard, England’s Jodi Ewart Shadoff is alone in third on nine under while host of players are locked on eight under, including second round leader Olson.
