 The precociously talented Alyaa Abdulghany fired a well-crafted 70 to take a one-stroke lead going into the final day in the 19th Faldo Series Grand Final. The 16-year-old girl from the United States improved on her previous round of 71 to claim a slim advantage over the first day leader, Englishman Jack Yule.

A total of 63 qualifiers  from 18 countries have joined Sir Nick Faldo at  Scharmützelsee in Bad Saarow, Germany.

With one round to play, James Wilson from  Balmore is lying third in the Boys' Under 21 years category after rounds of 77 and 71. On 148, he is six behind leader Jack from Norfolk.

The field is divided into five age-categories, and  three boys and two girls will each receive a trophy and an exemption into the tenth Asia Grand Final in 2016. The leading boy and girl will also be invited to play in a professional tour event.
