SYLVANIA, Ohio : South Korea's Yi Eun-jung fired a 10-under 61 and grabbed the lead after the third round of the 1.4 million dollar LPGA Jamie Farr Owens Corning Classic on Saturday.

Yi rolled in eight birdies and holed out from the fairway for an eagle at No. 10, posting a personal best score on the Tour.

The 21-year-old Yi moved to 18-under 195 and takes a four-shot lead over Kim Song-Hee (64) and American Morgan Pressel (67) into Sunday's fourth round.

Yi's 61 was not a course record on the par-71 Highland Meadows as Paula Creamer shot a 60 in the opening round in 2008.

Annika Sorenstam has the only 59 in LPGA Tour history.
