AIG Women's Open Live: Welcome to final round leaderboard updates from the season's final major of the season at Royal Porthcawl in Wales.

Japan's Miyu Yamashita takes a narrow one-stroke lead into the final round of the 2025 AIG Women's Open at Royal Porthcawl. 

Yamashita finds herself at 9-under par as she goes in pursuit of her first major title. 

A-Lim Kim starts the final round in solo second on 8-under par. 

The South Korean is seeking a second career major title having won the 2020 US Women's Open. 

Andrea Lee of the United States is then a further shot back on 7-under par in solo third.

Lee is also looking to pick up her first major title. 

Then in tied fourth starting out the final round is England's Charley Hull, who carries home hopes of a victory in the final round. 

The popular Brit is in contention to claim her first major championship title on her 61st attempt.

The 29-year-old produced fireworks on moving day with a 66 to lie three shots off the pace heading into Sunday. 

Further down the board, England's Lottie Woad, who won her first LPGA title on her pro debut in Scotland last week, starts the final round six shots back on 3-under par.

Spain's Paula Martin Sampedro wins the Smyth Salver for low amateur at the 2025 AIG Women's Open.

She rolls in a birdie on the par-5 18th to come home in 30 shots and card a 68, which is the low round of Sunday. 

An outstanding round of golf and she will be rewarded with silverware later today.

Huge chance here for Hull to capture her first major title. 

15:10

Katsu -5 (4)

Katsu clattered her tee shot into a spectator and she was then forced to chip out into the fairway.

Five birdies in a row for the low amateur

Martin Sampedro -3 (16)

The low amateur elect is going on a tear up on Sunday.

The Spaniard has just rolled in five birdies in a row to move to 3-under par.

She won't be winning the AIG Women's Open but she will be taking home the Smyth Salver for low amateur this week.

Martin Sampedro is 12 shots ahead of the next amateur. 

A star in the making. 

14:30
Andrea Lee bogey

A. Lee -6 (1)

She's back in the chasing pack at 6-under par in a tie for third now. 

14:29
Kim on fire

SY Kim -6 (9)

Kim goes out in an impressive 32 shots to move to 6-under par.

Every chance of setting a clubhouse target and who knows what could happen.

The sun is now out though and conditions are expected to ease a tad.

The leaders have got a big break with the weather it seems. 

14:24
Par at 1 for Hull

Hull -6 (1)

Hull found the greenside bunker with her approach shot but she splashed past the hole to six feet and then buried the par save.

A par at 1 is a great score today, so it's a solid start for Hull, who carries the home hopes of a British win today.

14:21
ACE FOR RHODES!

Rhodes -4 (5)

HOLE IN ONE FOR MIMI RHODES!

Rhodes' ball hilariously went in off her playing partner's ball! 

Stephanie Kyriacou's ball was resting just next to the pin before Rhodes hit her tee shot.

Rhodes moves five back. 

14:05
Hull finds the 1st fairway

Hull -6 (1*)

Charley Hull was just welcomed onto the 1st tee box to the biggest cheers and applause of the day.

The popular Brit did not let her most ardent fans down either as she smashed her drive down the fairway. 

Hull starts the final round three shots behind Yamashita as both players go in pursuit of their first major title. 

14:04
Sei Young KIm on the move

SY Kim -5 (7)

Sei Young Kim is making the biggest move of the final round at the moment.

She's just made three birdies in a row from the 5th to move to 3-under for the round and to 5-under for the tournament.

Just four back and in solo eighth place as it stands. 

13:34
Poor start for Woad

Woad -1 (2)

It's another bogey out the gate for Woad, who drops back to 1-under par.

Eight back now.
