Maja Stark showcased her resilience on a challenging third day of the U.S. Women's Open, shooting a 2-under 70 to maintain a one-shot lead. The course's speedier greens and tricky pin placements posed significant challenges, leading to many errors among competitors. Stark's approach hinges on playing without fear, a shift from her previous desire to merely maintain her performance. Julia Lopez Ramirez emerged as a strong contender, overcoming health issues to secure the second position. The round saw various competitors struggling, underscoring the demanding nature of the course.
"I think I'm just going to try to play freely. No one plays well when scared, and that's been my habit before, just trying to hang on to it."
"It's so hard because they tend to put holes that are right on the edges of the slopes. It's just so hard to get the distances right."
