Camarillo (USA), Oct 9 (PTI) Indian golfer Aditi Ashok could not recover from an early double bogey as she managed only 1-over 73 in the third round to lie at T-68 at the LPGA Mediheal Championship here.
Aditi now has rounds of 71-74-73 for a 2-over total of 218. He had started the day at the same T-68 place.
It has been a modest season for Aditi, whose best in 2022 on the LPGA has been T-13 in her first start of the year at Gainbridge.
Jodi Ewart Shadoff, who has not won in 245 starts on the LPGA Tour, has a great chance at winning here. She played bogey-free in the third round for a 3-under 69 to give her a four-shot lead.
Ewart Shadoff picked up two birdies on the front nine at The Saticoy Club, added another on the par-5 14th and then kept a clear card to the end.
She was at 14-under 202, four shots ahead of Paula Reto of South Africa, who captured her first LPGA title last month in Canada. Reto played with Shadoff, the 34-year-old from England.
Andrea Lee, who won her inaugural LPGA Tour event at the Portland Classic three weeks ago, had a 66 and was in a tie for third with Celine Boutier of France, who also had a 66, and former Women's British Open champion Hinako Shibuno (68).
Danielle Kang had a 68 and was in the group six shots behind with former US Women's Open champion Yuka Saso (68) and Xiyu Lin (70), who has three runner-up finishes this year.
