Charley Hull will take a one-shot lead into the final round of the CME Group Tour Championship after posting a third day 66 in Florida.
The 20-year-old from Kettering, who is chasing her first win on the LPGA Tour, ran in six birdies in a bogey-free round.
However, in a packed leaderboard at Tiburon in Naples, just three strokes separates the leading 11 players.
The young Briton hit 16 greens in regulation, as she battled back from yesterday's topsy-turvy round that included a double-bogey seven at the fifth hole.
Hull admitted: "Just kind of kept in the zone. I felt like I hit it pretty decent. I holed a few putts and got up and down when I needed to.
"It was scorable out there. I don't understand why everyone has dropped back."
Hull's closest challengers are American Brittany Lincicome and Korean So Yeon Ryu. Lincicome made eight birdies in her six-under 66, while Ryu hit all 14 fairways in a 69.
Overnight leader Lydia Ko struggled to follow Friday's superb 62, as she slipped to a 73 but remains in contention just two strokes off the pace.
The New Zealander hit just 11 greens in regulation as she offset four bogies with three birdies.
Teenager Ko added: "It's not far off. I had plenty of quality shots. The feel is still there. Hopefully a couple balls on the range and I'll be able to have that feeling back.
"No matter what position I'm in, I'm the chaser. I think that almost puts less pressure on me, where I'm not thinking about where I am exactly.
"I'm trying to make as many birdies as I can and give myself those opportunities. It's going to be a very interesting Sunday."
