LOS ANGELES: Australia´s Grace Kim pulled clear of the field at the LPGA Meijer Classic on Saturday, firing a six-under-par 66 to open up a commanding five-shot lead heading into the final round.

Kim started the third round alongside Ally Ewing at the top of the leaderboard after 36 holes at Blythefield Country Club in suburban Grand Rapids, Michigan. But the 23-year-old from Sydney produced another dazzling round to put clear daylight between her and the chasing pack in her pursuit of a second career LPGA Tour win.
