HAVRE DE GRACE, Md. - In halting English, Na On Min, 18, called it \"the best day of my life.\"
Now everyone else in the field for the McDonald\'s LPGA Championship at Bulle Rock wants to know if this non-exempt rookie can repeat it. On Min shocked and dazzled her better known peers here today with a seven-under-par 65, in the clubhouse at 10-under and now taking a one-shot lead into Sunday\'s final round.
On a day when the wind picked up and kept many other players from scoring - Michelle Wie shot an 11-over 83, and is considering withdrawing from the tournament - On Min used her low power game to rack up eight birdies and only one bogey. It wasn\'t just the lowest round of the tournament, but the lowest round of On Min\'s professional life.
She has only played in six LPGA Tour events, having failed in three previous Monday qualifiers before finally getting into a field for the first time at Corona Championship in Mexico in late April.
\"When I came here my goal was to make the cut,\" said On Min, who only learned English a year ago. \"Now...tomorrow, it\'s to win the tournament.\"
