Shanshan Feng leads U.S. Women’s Open

BEDMINSTER, N.J. — Front-running Shanshan Feng rolled in a short birdie putt on the final hole Saturday to take the third-round lead in the U.S. Women’s Open.

Teenager Hye-Jin Choi and perennial Open bridesmaid Amy Yang were a stroke back heading in the final round of the biggest event in women’s golf — and one that had an even bigger stage with President Trump in attendance for the second straight day.

Feng, from China, shot a 1-under-par 71 to reach 9-under 207 at Trump National Golf Club.

All three players are going to have Trump watching over them and probable a lot of South Korea, too, with the top six players chasing Feng all from the country.

Cristie Kerr, the 2007 Open winner and a member at this course, gave the president an American for whom to root with a 70 that put her at 4-under with Spain’s Carlota Ciganda (72).
