OTTAWA — Yani Tseng finished off a course-record 8-under 64 in the rain-delayed second round, then shot a 68 in the third to take a four-stroke lead today in the Canadian Women's Open.

Tseng, the 19-year-old Taiwanese star who won the McDonald's LPGA Championship in early June and finished second two weeks ago in the Women's British Open, had a 14-under 202 total on the tree-lined Ottawa Hunt and Golf Club course.

South Korea's Se Ri Pak (68) was second, and defending champion Lorena Ochoa (74) and Hull (72) followed at 8 under. Pak had her first career LPGA Tour hole-in-one, acing the 178-yard fifth hole with a 6-iron.

Paula Creamer (70) and Song-Hee Kim (71) were 5 under.

Honolulu's Michelle Wie, using the last of her six LPGA Tour exemptions this year, was tied for 14th at 2 under total after a 3-under-par 69. She opened with rounds of 75 and 70.

"I'm making a lot more putts than I did the first day," Wie said. "All I can do is play the best I can and try to shoot a low score. I'll focus on being consistent, hitting fairways and greens."

Annika Sorenstam (76) and Suzann Pettersen (70) also were in the group at 2 under.

Tseng returned to the course early Saturday to finish the final eight holes of the second round. She birdied the final four holes to break the course record of 65 set by Martha Nause in the 1994 du Maurier Classic and matched Friday by Katherine Hull.

Tseng had seven birdies and three bogeys in the third round.

Alena Sharp was the top Canadian. She was 1 over after a 73.

"You always want to shoot under par," said Sharp, from Hamilton, Ontario. "I'm out of contention to win now, but I still feel I can shoot in the 60s out here and that would be a great way to finish — to get back into red numbers."

Compatriot Lorie Kane was 4 over after a 73.
