SINGAPORE -- Karrie Webb broke out of a slump with three key birdies on the back nine Saturday to hold onto a one-stroke lead after the third round of the HSBC Women's Champions.

Webb, the 2011 champion, has led every round this week. She shot a 70 to move to 11-under 205 overall.

The veteran Australian will play against another former champion in the lead group on Sunday - 2012 winner Angela Stanford. The American matched Webb birdie-for-birdie over the final five holes to shoot a 69.
