BETHLEHEM, Pa. - Dark clouds rolled in. The wind swirled. The greens developed the consistency of your average kitchen floor. Yet Cristie Kerr kept her composure without too many stumbles in yesterday's third round of the U.S. Women's Open.
Seeking her second national championship in three years, Kerr carved out a workmanlike 1-over-par 72 over the Old Course at Saucon Valley Country Club to take a 2-stroke lead over Eun-Hee Ji going into today's final round.
