The Swede went through the third round at Erin Hills in Wisconsin, on two under par and is in sole lead ahead of the final play on Sunday – a total of seven under par.

I think I'll just pretend it's like any other round and accept the nerves I'll have and just focus on my game, says Stark about Sunday.

Stark set three birdies on Saturday's round as many players had problems with a tough course and strong winds. Only nine players in Saturday's starting field managed to complete the round under par.

Better than Stark was actually the Spanish Julia López Ramírez – four under par – but who despite this lies two behind Stark with a total of six under par.

In third place, it's triple Japanese – Mai Saigo, Takeda Rio, and Shibuno Hinako are all on a total of five strokes under par, 211.

The next Swedish player on the scoreboard is Linn Grant on shared seventh place after a round one over par and a total of three under.

Anna Nordqvist, Ingrid Lindblad, and Madelene Sagström are also through, all three on shared 30th place, a total of two over par.
