MINJEE RELISHES RIVALS' CHALLENGES

Minjee Lee made up a three-stroke deficit while Andrea Lee came from two shots back to catch leader Wichanee Meechai on June 1, forging a three-way tie and setting up what could be a dramafilled final round at the US Women's Open.

Minjee Lee knocked in an impressive eagle at the par-five seventh hole, then recorded birdies at the 11th, 12th and 16th after carding a bogey on No. 14.

The Australian's third-round, four-under 66 matched the low round of the tournament and put her at five-under 205 at the Lancaster Country Club in Pennsylvania.

When asked if her previous win at this event in 2022 might aid her on June 2, she did not hesitate to embrace the moment.

"I'm sure they're going to make it a little bit harder than today," the Australian, 28, said of her rivals.
