Hannah Green carded an eagle, three birdies, and three bogeys for a 2-under-par in the third round of the BMW Ladies Championship, improving her tournament score to 18-under after 54 holes. The Australian could match the event's 72-hole record of 22-under set by Jin Young Ko when she won in 2021.
After shooting 16-under for the first two rounds of the BMW Ladies Championship, Green was not entirely happy with her performance on Saturday. Here's part of what she had to say (via ASAP Sports):
"I guess the momentum from shooting 16-under in two rounds kind of fell off, and I was getting angry at things that I probably shouldn't have...It definitely could have been worse, I'm really proud that I was able to shoot under par."
The best score of the day was signed by Yu Jin Sun (9-under 63), which moved her up 10 places on the leaderboard and into solo second. One of the pre-tournament favorites, Jeeno Thitikul, fired an 8-under 64 in the third round to move up 23 places to T6.
