IRVINE, Scotland — Lottie Woad<\/a> had four birdies in a six-hole stretch around the turn and posted a 5-under 67 on Saturday to maintain her two-shot lead in the Women’s Scottish Open<\/a> as she closes in on victory in her professional debut.<\/p>\n Woad has such control of her game at Dundonald Links that she went 33 consecutive holes without a bogey until dropping a shot on the 15th.<\/p>\n Her lead was down to one shot, but the 21-year-old from England responded with a short wedge she played perfectly on the 17th, leaving her an 8-foot birdie putt she converted. A closing par put her at 17-under 199.<\/p>\n Nanna Koerstz Madsen<\/a> of Denmark, who caught Woad early with an eagle on the par-5 third hole, fell behind after Woad’s birdie streak. But the Dane rallied with three straight birdies and a couple of par saves for a 67.<\/p>\n She was two shots behind, along with Sei Young Kim<\/a> (66), who made a long eagle putt on the 14th and got up-and-down for birdie on the par-5 closing hole to get within two shots.<\/p>\n
