Swiss Ladies Open: Liz Young of England is in first place heading into the final round of the VP Bank Swiss Ladies Open by one stroke.
The 39-year-old finished Friday’s second round at Golfpark Holzhausern on nine under par after carding five birdies.
Rosie Davies, a fellow countrywoman, finished with a three-under round of 69 to tie for second place with four other golfers.
She was pursued by the joint round one leader Christine Wolf of Austria and Linn Grant of Sweden, as well as Charlotte Liautier of France.
“I played well today,” said leader Young, according to ladieseuropeantour.com. “It’s very wet with the rain we’ve had and the storms, so it’s target golf.
“What the number is to the flag, that’s what I’m going to pitch it to and that’s where it’s going to stay. I’m not hitting the ball too hard, so I’m not getting too much backspin which I think is helping me.
“Plus, I’m putting really nicely. The greens are rolling really nice considering how much rain we’ve had and I’ve holed a few out there today and yesterday.
“I’ve had the last two weeks off which has been really nice to recharge and do something other than golf. Now I feel my game is back in good shape.”
Following a two-under round of 70, Annabel Dimmock of England tied for 11th position, four strokes off the lead.
