Fueled by a course record 64, Yani Tseng moved into a tie with Lorena Ochoa after the second round was completed on Saturday morning at the CN Canadian Women’s Open.  Tseng continued her hot streak with a 68 in the third round today, opening up a four shot lead over Se Ri Pak with Ochoa six back.

Tseng started the third round with a bogey and made two more on the day but four birdies on the front nine and three on the back gave the rookie a commanding lead heading into the final round.  Ochoa slipped to third place after a two-over, 74, in the third round.  Pak shot a 68 to move into second place.

Paula Creamer is in fifth place, tied with Song-Hee Kim, at five-under for the tournament.  Annika Sorenstam and Suzann Pettersen lead a group of players at two-under par, including Michelle Wie.
