Ryu takes 3-stroke lead into final round of Australian Ladies Masters

E-mail Print

After yesterday's exciting eleven under round, it looked like South Korea's So Yeon Ryu would run away with the Gold Coast RACV Australian Ladies Masters but no one told that to her main chaser, Christel Boeljon of the Netherlands. Even though Ryu opened up a five shot lead over the Dutchwoman early in today's round at Royal Pines, Boeljon remained patient and was able to capitalise when the normally solid South Korean blinked on nine with a bogey.

Boeljon then applied the pressure on the back nine with two great birdies on holes 11 and 12, while Ryu's flat stick suddenly went cold and her irons into the greens weren't quite as radar like as yesterday.

Scott Hend of Australia kept pace in his title charge after shooting a three-under-par 69 to take a one-shot lead in the third round of the Zaykabar Myanmar Open presented by Air Bagan on Saturday. Hend will be on a mission of ending a three-year title drought but will need to overcome the challenge from Thai rising star Kiradech Aphibarnrat, who shot a 69 for a 201 total at the Royal Mingalardon Golf and Country Club.

Title holder Tetsuji Hiratsuka of Japan kept his hopes of retaining the title alive when he posted a 67 to share third place with Marcus Both (68) of Australia, a two-time Asian Tour winner and Ben Fox (69) of the United States on 202 in the US$300,000 event.

E-mail Print

Filipino teenager Miguel Tabuena has shrugged off the heartbreak of missing out on a full Asian Tour card and will be challenging for the ICTSI Philippine Open crown next week. The 17-year-old agonisingly missed out on the last card for 2012 by a mere US$250 at the season-ending Thailand Golf Championship in December but feels the vast experience gained in his rookie year as a professional will help him develop into a top-class player.

"When I found out I missed out on my Tour card I was really pissed but I know that the experience will make me a tougher and more experienced player in the long run. My goal this year is not to put myself in a similar position again!" said Tabuena.
