Celine Boutier, the 15th ranked golfer in the world, is a three-time winner on the LPGA. She has also played in two Solheim Cups, and represented France in the Olympics. If she wins on Sunday, her career will be elevated to the next stage.
Boutier has a three-shot advantage after 54 holes at the Evian Resort Golf Club, in Evian-les-Bains.
The 29-year old followed up her two previous rounds (66-69), with a 4-under-67 on Saturday, to cement her position at the top of the leaderboard.
If she is to win her first major championship on home soil, the Frenchwoman must hold off an array of top-notch players.
