PETALING JAYA: Playing in front of home fans is always special – and Kelly Tan is soaking in every moment as she heads into the final round of the Maybank Championship at the Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club today.

Buoyed by cheers from family, friends, and Malaysian supporters lining the fairways, Kelly delivered her best round of the week yesterday – a four-under 68 that lifted her 17 spots up to joint 38th on five-under, making her the top Malaysian heading into the final day.
