Morelia, Mexico (Sports Network) - Lorena Ochoa, the hometown favorite and defending champion, shot a four-under 69 on Saturday, but saw her lead cut down to one after three rounds of the Corona Championship.

Ochoa finished 54 holes at 20-under 199, which was one off her tournament record from last year, and is one ahead of Suzann Pettersen, who fired a six- under 67 on Saturday. Na Yeon Choi carded a four-under 69 and is alone in third place at minus-15. Wendy Ward (66), Morgan Pressel (67) and Irene Cho (68) are knotted in fourth place at 14-under 205. Ochoa recorded four birdies and a bogey on her front nine. She built a four- shot cushion over Pettersen after a two-putt birdie at the par-five 10th and four-foot birdie putt at No. 11. Trouble loomed for Ochoa at the par-four 12th.
