Leona Maguire's bid for a maiden victory on the LPGA Tour is still alive after the third round of the Pelican Championship.

The World No 46 fired a two-under par 68 to sit on 12-under-par overall. It leaves the 26-year-old four shots behind the American duo of Nellie Korda and Lexi Thompson, who top the leaderboard on 16 under.
