Madelene Sagström leads before the decider in the LPGA tour competition in New Jersey.

– My game feels very stable, says the 31-year-old Swedish golfer.

Madelene Sagström accounted for six birdies and 66 strokes in the third round – six under par. She now stands at a total of -19 before the fourth round. One stroke behind, the American Rose Zhang is chasing.

– I felt super, not super involved in everything, but I really felt in the moment. And that’s the type of game I think I need to play tomorrow, says Sagström.

Sagström has shown good form throughout the competition. In the first round she answered for 65 strokes, in the second 66 strokes.

World No. 1 Nelly Korda is tied for third place, eleven strokes behind Sagström.

Of the other Swedes, Anna Nordqvist (–5) is the best in joint tenth place.
