Day 3 of the 2015 U.S. Women's Open at Lancaster Country Club is in the books, and just like Friday's round, it concluded with South Korean Amy Yang atop the leaderboard.  

Entering Sunday's final round, a grand total of 11 players have accrued totals under par, with Yang leading the way at eight under. 

And while the tournament is hers to lose with just 18 holes remaining, there is precedent for players making late charges at the U.S. Open. According to GolfChannel.com's Randall Mell, six players in tournament history have come back from five strokes down in order to conclude the weekend with shiny hardware in their possession.  

The U.S. Open's official Twitter account provided a handy overview of Saturday's course layout, which was the hardest of the three days thus far: 



On Saturday, just one player shot better than 67, and a meager 14 in the field tallied rounds under par.  

Here's a rundown of the leaderboard entering Sunday's action: 



Once again, Yang did enough to remain in control.

She recorded her third straight round under par, shooting a 69 in order to push her outright lead to eight under.

While it wasn't the flashiest round, Yang showed resolve by rebounding from each of her three bogeys with a smattering of pars and birdies in order to maintain a stranglehold on the leaderboard's top spot.   

Yang's playing partner, Stacy Lewis, did as she typically does and used her putter to remain within three strokes of the lead. 

A birdie on No. 14 moved Lewis to within two shots of Yang at the time, but a late bogey on No. 17 dropped her back to five under overall. 



If Lewis can continue rolling the ball beautifully on Lancaster's putting surfaces, Yang will likely have to sweat out the final round.
