Final pairing: Sorenstam, Hurst, Ahn

The United States Golf Association said earlier this week that it would probably not have time to re-pair the players following today's third round, and it made that official when it announced tee times for both the third and fourth round early this morning.

The last group to finish at hole number 18 will feature the co-leaders coming into today, Annika Sorenstam and Pat Hurst, along with Shi Hyun Ahn, who is one of three players who came in at even par. The last players to finish playing today will actually be Dina Ammaccapane, Karine Icher and Diana Luna on hole number nine.

But the winner could be decided before the Sorenstam group. Ahn has been fading in this third round, and Annika has lost two shots to return to even par -- tied with Michelle Wie and youngster Brittany Lincicome. Meanwhile, Juli Inkster, who will finish two groups ahead of Sorenstam, has just birdied to tie Hurst for the lead at 1-under for the tournament.
