There is more than one notable storyline on the Ladies European Tour this week, with the first round of the Wistron Ladies Open in Taiwan having already been reduced to 54 holes following heavy rain which waterlogged the course.
The event, which was due to be 72 holes, features the likes of Lottie Woad, Mimi Rhodes, Shannon Tan and Chiara Tamburlini.

Once the action does begin in Taiwan, plenty of eyes will be on the 16-year-old Anna Huang.
The Canadian, who turns 17 on October 30, has won her past two LET events and could make it a hat-trick of triumphs if she’s successful this week.
Huang – who has her dad on the bag – said: “To win three in a row would be really cool. I’m so grateful for two wins, but three would definitely be the cherry on top.”
