SINGAPORE (AFP) - A last-gasp birdie kept Park In-Bee on top at the HSBC Women’s Champions on Friday as world number one Lydia Ko fought through one of the “craziest” rounds of her life.

Park, demoted to second in the world by Ko, 17, was trailing Spain’s Carlota Ciganda by a stroke heading into the 18th but she holed her third birdie to retain the joint lead.
