Morgan shares HP Open lead

LEADERBOARD -7 B Morgan, C Koch (Swe) -5 A Sorenstam (Swe) -4 J Moodie

Becky Morgan of Wales and Sweden's Carin Koch share the lead on seven under par after the third round of the HP Open in Stockholm.

Koch carded a four-under-par 68 to tie with Morgan, who shot a 69.

World number one Annika Sorenstam, paired with Solheim Cup team-mate Koch, also posted a 69 to finish two shots behind in third on five-under-par.

Scotland's Janice Moodie, a joint-leader after round two, hit a level-par 72 to remain on four under in fourth.

Koch, who recovered from a bogey at the par-five first hole, said: "I had to bounce back and I will have to play aggressively on Sunday.

"Sometimes when I'm in contention I play defensively and try to save par, but like Annika Sorenstam, I want a win."

Morgan said: "My golf was a bit scrappy but I feel confident going into the final round because I know I can handle the pressure."
