Elm Park duo Anna Foster and Emma Fleming lead the home charge but Leona Maguire was “proud” to dig deep and make the cut with a shot to spare in the wind-lashed KPMPG Women’s Irish Open at Carton House.
Rookie Foster (23) shot a one-over 74 that leaves her tied for 25th on one-under, 10 strokes behind world amateur No 1 Lottie Woad, who fired a brilliant 67 in moderately less windy morning conditions to head Switzerland’s Chiara Tamburlini by three shots on 11-under.
