JENNA STAYS IN LET QUALIFYING HUNT
JENNA STAYS IN THE HUNT WITH
MIXED BAG OF FIGURES IN ITALY
Jenna Wilson had a card spattered with an eagle, four birdies, one double bogey and three single bogeys as she stayed in the hunt with a par-matching 72 for a 36-hole tally of two-under-par 142 in the Ladies European Tour Pre-Qualifying School eliminator at Golf Club Le Fonti in Italy today.
The Scottish amateur international from Strathaven – she has not relinquished her amateur status yet – is in joint 10 position behind the three joint leaders on five-under 139: two French girls, Jade Schaeffer and amateur Melody Bourdy and Czech amateur Zuzana Masinova.
Jenna’s eagle came at the seventh after she hard birdied the first but run up a double bogey at the third and dropped another shot at the fifth. A birdie at the eight got her to the turn in one-under-par 34.
She moved to two under the card with a birdie at the 14th but finished weakly with bogeys at the 15th and 18th for a 72, two shots more than her opening round.
Curtis Cup reserve Heather MacRae from Dunblane is sharing 47th place on six-over-par 150 after following up a 76 with a 74. Heather birdied the third, 11th and 14th but dropped shots at regular intervals – fourth, sixth, 13th, 16th and 18th for two halves of 37.
The projected cut figure, trimming the field from 95 to 65 after Friday’s third round, is eight under par so Heather has not got much slack to come and go with.
Irish Curtis Cup player Claire Coughlan from Cork, deciding to have a go at last to win a tour pro card, can feel happy so far with her progress. She is one of six players sharing fourth place on 141. Claire, still an amateur, is on the same mark as England’s Sophie Walker, Felicity Johnson and Rachel Bell.
The leading 43 players and ties after four rounds will go forward to join the exempt players in the Final Q School at La Cala Golf Resort, near Marbella on the Costa del Sol from November 22 to 25.
+Cara Gruber from Royal Dornoch is not attending the LET Q School this year. She explained to Scottishgolfview.com:
“I decided against it this year. It wasn’t exactly my best season and I have other things to focus on these days … trying to get through my exams for becoming a financial adviser and moving into my own house in a couple of weeks aswell. I might be back at the Tour School next year ….Never say never!”
