Sei Young Kim responded to Ally McDonald's ace on the 12th with four back-to-back birdies to open a five-stroke lead in the Pelican Women's Championship, shooting a 64 to reach 6-under 196.

"She made a hole-in-one, we almost one-shot lead," Kim said. "I got a little bit pressure, but I try to focus on my game."

"I just trying to keep push myself until the last hole. Just keep pushing. I think that is way to make more birdies."

McDonald's ace and three birdies were accompanied by two bogeys and a double bogey for a 68.

"It was playing like 115 front, 127 hole, and there was a little bit of downwind," said McDonald. "So, I thought a 115 shot, just playing the front edge, would be enough to pitch it a few yards on and let it release. Honestly, this is kind of how my strategy works, was everything told me to look a couple paces right of it, so I did. That's kind of my strategy, because I wasn't looking at the hole, but then it went in."

"I felt like I played really solid during that stretch. I hit good shots. Just unfortunately, my speed got a little off, especially 16, 17, 18. For a little bit, I kind of lost my touch with the putter."

Stephanie Meadow also shot a 68 to reach third place at 8-under, one shot ahead of Lydia Ko who shot a 66.

Brooke Henderson continues to be on form, she has played the weekend in eight starts this season, and is tied in fifth place at 6-under with Austin Ernst and Minjee Lee after shooting a 66.

“I love moving day," said Henderson. “ I feel like after you make the cut, you're feeling a little bit looser and it's a great day where you can really make a move up the leaderboard, challenge the leaders. I was trying to do that today. Didn't get as many [birdies] as I would have liked, but hopefully do something similar tomorrow.”
