After three excellent days and an interim lead after the 2nd and 3rd rounds, the Vaud native started with two bogeys on Saturday and even had to record a triple bogey (3 over par) on the fifth hole. Métraux had made bogey on this hole in the first two rounds.

After 9 of the 18 holes, Métraux is now only in joint 9th place. However, he is only two shots behind the medal places. New Zealand's Lydia Ko is in the lead with a five-stroke advantage.
