The 25-year-old is chasing her second victory on the LPGA Tour, having won the 2022 ISPS Handa World Invitational."[I am] probably going to go work out in the morning to try to get some nerves out, but I think just keep having fun with it because when I play scared, that's when I mess up, and you can't really play scared at a course like this," Stark said. The Swede leads Spain's Julia Lopez Ramirez, who climbed to second in the leaderboard after producing a round-of-the-day pair will be last out to start their final round, at 19:10 BST on trio Mao Saigo, Hinako Shibuno and Rio Takeda are all tied on five under in third place. Successive bogeys hampered overnight leader Saigo's pursuit of a second consecutive major title to finish with a three-over 75, while world number one Nelly Korda remains in contention and trails Stark by three after making three birdies in her final five holes. "The first thing is that I would like to rest well and then tomorrow refreshed," Saigo, who won this season's Chevron Championship, said. "I would like to start from zero. That result was not that good, but I don't think that I have to change anything. I just want to focus on my play."

Virgin Media customers told to check if they're entitled to a free upgrade
Virgin Media has issued an important update to customers, which could see them get a free upgrade. Customers with old equipment are currently being sent letters from a UK Internet Service Provider (ISP) to share that they could get free upgrades. Plus, even if you don't receive a letter from the ISP, Virgin will still update your outdated router. According to the Mirror, when the new box arrives, customers will get a better experience while making sure their Virgin device is safe. Did you know that today is Safer Internet Day? 🌐 We're working to help parents & guardians keep their kids safe online & protected from scams and fraud 💖 Check out our advice & tips from our Find the Right Words campaign 💡 Find out more 👉 — Virgin Media ❤️ (@virginmedia) February 11, 2025 Some of Virgin's older Wi-Fi routers no longer offer key security updates that stop bugs and cyberattacks. Under a recent update in a law by the UK Government, ISPs are now responsible for offering and updating Wi-Fi devices to make sure they are kept safe. At the initial announcement of the law update, Julia Lopez, UK Data and Digital Infrastructure Minister said: 'Today marks a new era where consumers can have greater confidence that their smart devices, such as phones and broadband routers, are shielded from cyber threats, and the integrity of personal privacy, data and finances better protected.' If you receive a letter from Virgin Media, it's key that you accept the delivery of the new box for security reasons. However, if you do not receive a letter, you can check to see if you're Wi-Fi router is outdated by checking whether it is a Hub 1 or a Hub 2. You can check whether your Wi-Fi router needs an update via Virgin Media. Explaining what the law update means for Virgin customers, ISP shares: 'Customers of broadband ISP Virgin Media (O2), specifically those still using some of the provider's oldest routers (i.e. Hub 2 AC, Hub 2 and Hub 1), have recently become the latest group to receive a letter inviting them to upgrade to the HUB 4.0 (ARRIS TG3492LG-VMB) 'at not extra' cost.

Adding: 'The provider has long been running various Hub upgrade programmes, often for different reasons, and this is just a continuation of that approach. 'In this case, the latest upgrade effort reflects a combination of changes that were introduced under both the recent Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act (PSTI) and the Telecoms (Security) Act (TSA).'
