Lee Kyung-hoon, the second top 10 of the season, 'Blue Bull

Lee Kyung-hoon 32, CJ has a chance to win his second Top 10 of the PGA Tour season.

Lee Kyung-hoon cut one stroke in the third round on the 24th Korea time on the third day of the PGA Tour Valspar Championship total prize money of $8.4 million at Innisbrook Resort Copperhead Course par 71, 7,340 yards in Palm Harbor, Florida.

Lee, who recorded 5-under 208 overall, tied for 13th, up one notch from tying for 14th on the previous day. An eagle at Hole 11 par 5 led the competition for the top 10.

Lee, who has two PGA wins, tied for fourth at the Cognizant Classic earlier this month. However, he has not won a top-10 prize since then.

The possibility of a come-from-behind victory cannot be ruled out, as it is a five-shot gap between the joint eighth place and one-shot gap with the lone leader Keith Mitchell of the U.S.

Mitchell recorded 10-under 203 overall in the third round, becoming the lone No. 1 player with a two-par lead over players tied for second place. Reducing four pars at three holes including No. 16 par 4, No. 17 par 3 and No. 18 par 4 gave her the opportunity to take the lead.

In particular, it was second place by one stroke until the 17th hole, but the second shot with 151 yards left on the last 18th hole was critical to an eagle.

Mitchell, who won the Honda Classic in March 2019, will win his second career championship in five years if he holds the lead on the last day.

Shamus Power Ireland, Peter Malnerty USA, and Mackenzie Hughes Canada are tied for second place 8 under par 205 overall.

Kim Seong-hyeon 25 of Shinhan Financial Group shot four-over par, falling to a tie for 70th place interim total of four-over par 217. Lim Seong-jae 25 failed to make the cut.
