VIKKI, PAMELA MAKE CUT BUT
WELL BEHIND FUTURES LEADER


Scots Vikki Laing from Musselburgh and Pamela Feggans from Patna, Ayrshire both made the 36-hole cut in the US Futures Tour event, the Mercedes Benz of Kansas City women's championship.
Vikki has scored 79 and 73 for a seven-over-par tally of 149 over the par-71, 6274yd lay-out at Leawood South Country Club. She birdied the long sixth, the short 13th and par-4 15th but, with bogeys at the second, third, 12th, 16th and 18th, made too many errors to challenge 18-year-old leader Mindy Kim from Calidornia (68-69 for 137).
Pamela made the cut with one shot to spare with rounds of 79 and 73 for 152. Pamela dropped four shots after the turn with a double bogey at the 14th and bogeys at the 11th and 17th. Fortunately, she had earlier birdied the long first and short second.
