Aditi Ashok had three birdies in last six holes for a two-under 69 that saw her placed at tied 35th at the end of the third round of the Sime Darby LPGA, in Kuala Lampur on Saturday.

The 19-year-old Indian golfer, who shot 70 and 73 on first two days is now one-under 212 for 54 holes and improved her position from tied 44th to tied 35th.

Seasoned pro Cristie Kerr put herself in prime position to claim a second tour win of the year, carding 6-under par 65, to leave her with a slender one-shot cushion over over-night leader Shanshan Feng.
