Thitikul began her day strongly, with three birdies in her first five holes. This early success propelled her forward, as she followed up with another impressive streak of three consecutive birdies starting from the seventh hole. Reaching the turn in just 30 strokes, her momentum continued until a three-putt bogey at the par-five 15th temporarily halted her progress. Nevertheless, her determination shone through, as she finished the round with two additional birdies, further extending her lead over the closest pursuers.
Reflections from the Course

As she heads into the final round, Thitikul has consistently finished no worse than seventh in her last seven worldwide starts, adding to the excitement surrounding her potential win this weekend.
