Updated 7:11 pm, Saturday, May 18, 2013 (AP) — Chella Choi shot her second straight 6-under 66 on Saturday to take a one-stroke lead over Jessica Korda and Anna Nordqvist, the Swede who broke the course record with a 61 in the third round of the Mobile Bay LPGA Classic. Choi twice made three straight birdies to move to 17 under, and has made only two bogeys in three rounds on The Crossings course at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail's Magnolia Grove complex. Choi, who had three top-five finishes last year, said she started checking out the leaderboard "every hole" at the start of the tournament and feels mentally stronger now in her bid to finally get a win. Nordqvist, meanwhile, is seeking her first win since capturing the LPGA Championship and season-ending LPGA Tour Championship as a rookie in 2009. Lewis had a string of four straight birdies from Nos. 5-8 to start a stretch of eight in 10 holes. [] Lewis's low round in last year's win was 67.
