Canada's Brooke Henderson finishes 3rd round with birdie, 4 shots back at Portland Classic

Andrea Lee and Lilia Vu both reached No. 1 in the women's world amateur ranking when they were in college. Now they have a shot at their first LPGA Tour victory.

Vu had four birdies on the back nine and had a 3-under 69 on Saturday and Lee finished strong with a 67 to share the lead with Ayaka Furue (67) of Japan going in the final round of the AmazingCre Portland Classic.

Lee starred at Stanford and said the Columbia Edgewater course reminds her of the Cardinal's home course with its tree-lined fairways. Vu was an All-American at UCLA who earned her LPGA Tour card back for this year through the Epson Tour.

None of them could find much separation with so many players in the mix, and when the day ended, 10 players were within three shots of the lead.

"I'm just going to go out there and have a good time and let the golf do what it will do," Vu said.

Former Women's British Open champion Hinako Shibuno had a 66 and was one shot behind along with Paula Reto of South Africa, who had a 67, former Women's PGA champion Hannah Green (68) and Daniela Darquea of Ecuador, who had a most exciting round of 68.

Brooke Henderson of Smiths Falls, Ont., was four shots behind after a third round of 3-under 69. Nelly Korda had a 69 and was six shots behind. Korda needs to win to have a chance to return to No. 1 in the world. Alena Sharp of Hamilton is tied for 38th a 4-under.

Speechless!
