lead at the halfway point<\/a> in her first start as a professional on the Ladies European Tour (LET). <\/p>\nHowever, the 23-year-old mixed five bogeys with two birdies on Saturday to fall four shots behind Australia’s Hannah Reeves, who carded a third-round 66.<\/p>\n
Regional qualifier Reeves hit six birdies in her round and almost holed out for an eagle three on the final hole as he leads compatriot Kelsey Bennett by a shot heading into the final round. <\/p>\n
“I’m so happy with how I finished there,” said Reeves.<\/p>\n
“I just kind of mishit a few approach shots at the start. I was struggling a bit. I did just stay really patient and just had a few nice feelings throughout my swing. And then it came together at the end, so [I’m] really happy.<\/p>\n
“It was so special [having my dad on the bag]. My parents flew down this morning. I think he was a bit nervous but yeah, it was really nice.”<\/p>\n
Thailand’s April Angurasaranee sits tied third, two shots behind Reeves, after a stunning 62 which included a hole-in-one at the par-three 12th, while England’s Charlotte Heath recorded a second successive 67 to move to nine under.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ireland’s Aine Donegan slipped down the leaderboard with a disappointing three-over round of 74 in the third round…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":450654,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[5904,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-450653","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-golf","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/450653","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=450653"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/450653\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/450654"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=450653"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=450653"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=450653"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
