Hedwall, Lewis share Reignwood lead
Caroline Hedwall shot a third round five-under-par 68 on Saturday to claim a share of the Reignwood LPGA Classic.
The Swedish player notched five birdies on the back nine to join overnight leader Stacy Lewis on 13-under par at Reignwood Pine Valley.
World number one Lewis had led the tournament throughout the first two rounds, but was pegged back after carding a one-under 72, which included three bogeys in her first 11 holes.
In fact, the two-time major winner needed a birdie on the final hole to reclaim a share of the lead.
Brittany Lang, who was in second place after the first two rounds, stayed in contact of the leaders with a round of 72.
Lang stayed two shots off the lead in a tie for third place on 11-under alongside South Korea’s Mirim Lee, who carded a 68.
