Irish Open Strokeplay - Pamela, Megan and Clare- Marie make the cut

Welsh Curtis Cup star Breanne Loucks (Wrexham), leads the field by five strokes going into Sunday's third and final round of the Irish women’s open amateur stroke-play championship at Elm Park Golf Club, Dublin.
In blustery but dry conditions, Loucks fired an impressive 69 and then a 72 for a 36-hole tally of 141 over the testing par-73 lay-out where all but one of the tees was played off the men’s blue medal markers.
The top 40 who survived today’s cut, at 13 over par, commence their final round at 8am on Sunday with the leaders teeing off at 10.20am.
These include West of Scotland's Megan Briggs,Pamela Prestwell and Clare- Marie Carlton
