Buchanan Castle’s Kylie Walker moved into second place as overnight leader Pamela Pretswell (Bothwell Castle) had a disastrous round to drop out of contention with one round to go in the European women’s amateur championship at Falsterbo Golf Club today
Kylie matched the par of 71 for a 54-hole tally of four-over 217 but finished the day seven strokes adrift the leader, Sweden’s Caroline Hedwall who shot a brilliant inward half of 31 for a 66 and a three-under-par total of 210.
Majorca-based Lauren Mackin (Ranfurly Castle) the third Scot in the field, missed the cut – 60 players with totals of 233 or better – with an 83 for 243 and joint 101st place.
The Top 60 now play tomorrow in the 4th and final round.
