07/04/2009 - Sylvania, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Korea's Eunjung Yi fired a 10-under 61 and took the third-round lead Saturday at the Jamie Farr Owens Corning Classic.
Yi holed out from the fairway for an eagle at No. 10 and collected eight birdies in a flawless round, carding her best score on tour by five shots.
The 21-year-old Korean moved to 18-under 195 and will carry a four-shot lead over Song-Hee Kim (64) and Morgan Pressel (67) into the final round.
Amazingly, Yi's 61 was not a course record on the par-71 Highland Meadows layout. Paula Creamer, who withdrew on Thursday, fired a 60 in the first round last year on the way to winning the tournament.
Annika Sorenstam has the only 59 in LPGA Tour history, a mark Yi could have matched if she holed her final approach shot Saturday into the 18th green for eagle.
Instead, Yi knocked it to four feet. She missed the birdie putt -- it curled around the left side of the cup -- and a chance to tie Creamer's mark of 60.
