SYLVANIA, Ohio — Sweden's Linn Grant came into the third round of the Dana Open two shots back of the lead.

After a soaking wet Saturday that saw play suspended for much of the afternoon, Grant pulled ahead of the field, way ahead of the field. 

She heads into Sunday's final round with a six shot lead over second place.

Grant was nearing history as she flirted with a 59, which would have been a Dana Open record and the second time its ever been done in LPGA Tour history, but ultimately finished the day with a 62.

Rain of course played a major factor in player's games, forcing suspension of play just before 1:30 p.m. and not resuming until 5:15 p.m.

Once the rain settled however, Grant finished at -9 for the day and heads into the fourth and final round at -18 for the tournament. 

Behind her are five players at -12, including Stephanie Kyriacou, Maria Fassi, Matilda Castren, Emily Pedersen and Allisen Corpuz. American Annie Park, who was leading the tournament after the second round, finished the day with an overall score of -11.
