Nelly Korda ends weather-delayed round one shot off top

Nelly Korda has shot a three-under 69 in the weather-delayed third round of the Chevron Championship to enter the final round of the year's first major one shot off the lead.

Play was suspended on Saturday because of lightning, forcing the completion of the third round early Sunday morning at Carlton Woods.

Haeran Ryu of South Korea shot a bogey-free 67 with five birdies to enter the final round leading at 205 after 54 holes.

Gabriela Ruffels is the leading Australian at four under after a third round 70. Stephanie Kyriacou is three under, Robyn Choi one under, Sarah Kemp two over and Karis Davidson four over.

Korda, who is trying to tie an LPGA Tour record with her fifth straight victory, had finished 11 holes when play was suspended. She has a three-round total of 206 to enter Sunday's fourth round tied with Brooke Henderson for second place.

Henderson shot a 64 in the third round to set a scoring record for the tournament since its move from Mission Hills, California, to Texas last year. The Canadian, who has 13 LPGA wins with two majors, had a one-putt streak of 10 with six birdies and an eagle in that stretch.

Atthaya Thitikul, who was tied for the lead after two rounds, shot a 72 in the third round to fall into a tie for fourth place with Jin Hee Im and Maja Stark.
