Smith has only missed four cuts but also struggled in the latter rounds of tournaments, finishing with two top-10 finishes. "I've been working on a little bit more tempo in my swing, I can get really fast out there," Smith said. "I change a little (on my) backswing so (I) feel a little bit more solid." Smith and Chien hold a one-stroke lead over Suzann Petterson, Karine Icher, Lydia Ko, Azahara Munoz and Sung Hyun Park. Lexi Thompson, who leads the Race to the CME Globe, finished with a 1-under 71, putting her five strokes behind the leaders.
