SEI YOUNG KIM TAKES THE LEAD AT LPGA TOUR FINALE

Defending champion Sei-young Kim fired six birdies to take the lead by one from World No. 1 Ko Jin-young at the LPGA Tour season-finale in Florida.


South Korea's Sei Young Kim has a one shot lead heading into the final day of the CME Group Tour Championship at the Tiburon Golf Club in Florida, with England's Georgia Hall and Charley Hull in the chasing pack.

World No. 2, Kim, carded a five-under-par 67 to top the leaderboard at -13, one shot ahead of the overnight leader, South Korea's Jin Young Ko, who shot a three-under-par 69 to finish in solo second at -12.

England's Georgia Hall was one-over-par for her round with eight holes to play, but fired five birdies in a seven-holes to get to -10 and move up into third place on her own.

One shot behind Hall is England's Charley Hull, who shot eight birdies to equal the lowest round of the day with a six-under-par 66 and jump into a share of fourth on -9. Hull is joined at -9 by Canada's Brooke Henderson and Australia's Minjee Lee, after they matched her round of 66. Completing the group in fourth are America's Austin Ernst and Lexi Thompson.

Three shots behind the leader, tied for ninth at -10, are Christie Kerr (USA), Lydia Ko (NZL), Mina Harigae (USA) and Hannah Green (AUS).
