Charley Hull has a one-shot lead over Nelly Korda after both made bogey in the dark on the final hole at The Annika. Hull was six shots ahead of Korda early in the third round. But Korda made a 45-foot putt and a 35-foot putt for birdies on consecutive holes and clawed her way back.

The weekend looked to be a duel between Korda, the No. 1 player in women’s golf and the LPGA player of the year, and the carefree Hull. That’s how it looks for the final round, though it certainly didn’t start out that way. The American star kept inching closer, hitting her approach to 2 feet on the 11th and making a 10-foot birdie putt on the 16th. Korda hit wedge to 4 feet on the 17th, and Hull answered with a wedge to 3 feet for matching birdies.
“My putt, I could barely see the hole,” Hull said. “I couldn’t see the break or anything. So it was pretty dark to finish in.”
