Gannon's 10-under par performance was the highlight of the day, putting her three strokes clear of the chasing pack. Meanwhile, Tipton made a stunning surge past a talented group of players, including championship contenders Paul McBeth, Ricky Wysocki, and Anthony Barela, to take a one-stroke lead.

In the FPO division, Gannon has established a more substantial gap with her 10-under par performance on Saturday. Kristin Lätt sits alone in second place, three strokes back at 21-under, while Paige Pierce is four strokes off the lead. Silva Saarinen fell to solo fourth and trails Gannon by seven strokes.
