On Saturday De Guzman carded a 2-over 74 but things could have been much worse. Through 12-holes De Guzman was 4-over and without a birdie until she rolled in two down the stretch on Nos. 13 and 18 to salvage her round.
USC senior Karen Chung is just one-stroke further back in a tie for 19th at 4-under. Chung, a former All- American, had an interesting third round that ended as a 1-under 71. On the frontside Chung had a pair of double-bogeys and also a bogey on the backside, however she was able to overcome the slip ups thanks to six birdies, including back-to-back circles to conclude the day.
