Ashleigh Buhai holds commanding lead at Women's Open
Ashleigh Buhai will take a five-shot lead into the final day at the AIG Women's Open thanks to a seven-under-par 64 on Saturday, while Leona Maguire sits 12 strokes adrift in a tie for 19th. The South African Buhai topped the leaderboard after round three, with her 14-under-par 199 representing the second-lowest 54-hole score in championship history. The 33-year-old is now eyeing her maiden major triumph that would add to three previous victories on the Ladies' European Tour. Buhai had led at the Women's Open after 36 holes in 2019 only to wind up finishing fifth. Six birdies in the first 10 holes helped her take control at Muirfield, with her sole dropped shot coming on the 18th amid impressive negotiation of high winds.
