Late in front at Samsung World Championship

Oct 5, 2008 - 1:03 PM HALF MOON BAY, California (Ticker) -- Paula Creamer will look to finish the job in Sunday's final round of the Samsung World Championship.

Creamer fired a bogey free 4-under-par 68 in Saturday's third round to take a one-stroke lead at the $1 million event.

After struggling to a 74 on Friday in wind-swept conditions, Creamer was steady to start the third round, parring the first six holes. She carded her first birdie of the day at No. 7 and settled back into par mode with eight straight.

Creamer then made her move, birdying her final three holes to get to 6-under 210 and a stroke in front of Angela Stanford, who is at 5-under 211 after a 3-under 69.

Looking for her third straight win in this event, Lorena Ochoa is tied for third after a 70 on Saturday. Katherine Hull (69) and Song-Hee Kim are tied with Ochoa at at 4-under 212.

Na Yeon Choi took a two-stroke lead into Saturday's third round but slipped to 10th at 1-under 215 after a 3-over 75 at Half Moon Bay Golf Links' Ocean Course.

Ochoa is looking to become the fourth player to win this event at least three times, including five-time winner Annika Sorenstam.

Sorenstam has struggled this week and carded a 75 on Saturday to drop to 16th at 5-over 221.

First prize is $250,000.
