Ladies European Tour Q School prelim eliminator

JENNA AND HEATHER SET FAIR TO
MAKE IT THROUGH TO LA CALA

Scottish women's amateur Order of Merit winner Jenna Wilson is lying joint 11th and Heather MacRae is sharing 28th place as the Ladies European Tour Qualifying School preliminary eliminator moves into its fourth and final round at Le Fonti Golf Club in Italy.
Friday's cut to the leading 65 and ties fell at 230 (those at that figure and under will contest the last round).
At the end of Saturday’s play, only the top 43 and ties will progress to the Final Q School at La Cala Resort on the Costa Del Sol later this month.
Jenna, who has retained her amateur status so far, has had rounds of 70 72 and 74 for level par 216. She had birdies today at the fourth, eighth and 14th but five bogeys – at the second, third, ninth, 11th and 17th.
Heather, also still an amateur, improved her position significantly and now has a great chance of going on to the Final Q School.
She has scored 76, 74 and 71 for five-over-par 221.Heather had birdies at the seventh, eighth, ninth and 11 with bogeys at the first, fourth and 17th in returning her best round of the week.
Jade Schaeffer (France) has gone three shots clear of the field on nine-under-par 207 with scores of 68, 71 and 68.
Next best come two-time British women’s open amateur champion Louise Stahle (Sweden), who has not had the success on the LPGA Tour this year that many expected and Yorkshire’s Rachel Bell, who is playing as an amateur.
English amateur champion Kiran Matharu, pictured above, who turned pro after the Curtis Cup, is in the danger zone – joint 57th on 227 after scores of 72, 77 and 78.
