Mehaffey chasing at Roganstown
Olivia Mehaffey will have to come from behind if she is to complete a dream week with victory in the Irish Girls’ Under 18 Open at Roganstown.
The Royal County Down star captured the Faldo Ireland Series in brilliant fashion earlier this week but a second round 77 left her three shots behind Norway’s Marthe Wold entering Sunday’s final round.
Wold fired three birdies and an eagle in a level par 71 to take a two stroke lead over England’s Dulcie Sverdloff and Sophie Madden and Sweden’s Marina Hedlund on four over 146.
Mehaffey leads the Irish challenge on 149 with Clonmel’s Gemma McCarthy a shot further adrift after posting four birdies in a second round 73.
