The Gainbridge LPGA winner in February, Korda finished at 25-under 263 to break the Meijer LPGA Classic record at Blythefield Country Club.

She shot a career-best 62 on Saturday to take a three-stroke lead into the final round.

"Actually, really enjoyed today," Korda said.

"Honestly, there has been times where on Sundays I really like haven't enjoyed it, like the stress kind of ate me and I didn't stay in the moment and enjoy playing golf on a Sunday in a final group.

"But today I really enjoyed it and it was actually a really good battle between Leona and I. She definitely kept me on my toes."

The 22-year-old American, ranked No.4 in the world, won her fifth tour title.

She rebounded after missing the cut two weeks ago in the US Women's Open.

"I knew it was going to be a battle," Maguire said.

"I knew I had a lot of golf in front of me and she had a three-shot head start."

The major KPMG Women's PGA Championship is next week at Atlanta Athletic Club.

"This week is going to be huge heading into a major," Maguire said.

"I knew I was playing some great golf. It's a huge confidence boost for the rest of the season."
