The Stanford player will take a three-shot lead into the final round in Canada.
Lee held a share of the lead after the opening round but fell to second after 36 holes. The Stanford player sunk four birdies in the third round, moving herself to 10 under for the tournament.
After roaring into the lead with a first round of 6-under 66, Lee was quiet in Round 2, shooting 1 under. The USGA has committed to send at least two players to both the Canadian Men’s and Women’s Amateur Championship since 2017, and Lee’s play at the 2019 edition of the competition is a direct result of that commitment.
Second-round leader Jennifer Chang of Cary, N.C., shot even-par, leaving her at 7 under for the tournament.
Brianna Navarrosa of San Diego, Calif., remained in third place, four back of Lee, with a round of 2 under.
The low round of the day belonged to Therese Warner of Kennwick, Wash. Warner shot 4-under 68, moving into fourth position at 5 under for the tournament.
The low Canadian heading into the final round is 12-year-old Michelle Liu of Vancouver. Liu was bogey-free in Round 2, but carded 1 over on Thursday, sitting in a tie for sixth.
The final round of competition will see the first groups tee off at 7:30 a.m. from Nos. 1 10.
The 2019 Canadian Women’s Amateur individual champion will earn an exemption into the 2019 U.S. Women’s Amateur and the 2019 CP Women’s Open at Magna Golf Club from August 19-25. Should the winner be a non-Canadian, the low Canadian will also earn an exemption to the 2019 CP Women’s Open.
