PINEHURST, N.C. (June 21, 2014) -- Amateur Minjee Lee remains in the hunt at the 2014 U.S. Women's Open Championship. Lee, from Australia, shot a Saturday 72 and sits tied for third place at 2-over entering Sunday's final round from Pinehurst No. 2. Lee has been inside the Top 5 since a first-round 69 and is currently four shots back of co-leaders Amy Yang and Michelle Wie.
