LIVE: Tension builds as Aus PGA and WPGA reach climax

Jed Morgan leads by nine and Grace Kim has edged one clear as the Fortinet Australian PGA and WPGA Championships near their conclusion.

Morgan’s lead has been as much as 11 during the final round at Royal Queensland Golf Club while Kim took the outright lead with a birdie at the short par-4 12th.

The 22-year-old Morgan is threatening to break a cluster of tournament records with his remarkable 20-under par score through three rounds, and he goes off the first tee at 11.35am local time.

The tournament record is 22-under par and the biggest margin in the history of the time-honoured tournament is eight shots.
