LYNN KENNY KEEPS HER NERVE
AND REGAINS L E T CARD
Lynn Kenny regained her player's card for next season's Ladies European Tour with a final round of one-over-par 73 for a final total of four-over-par 292 (earlier rounds 70 78 71 and 73).
With the leaders still to finish the LET Final Qualifying School at La Cala Resort, near Marbella, the Clydesdale-Bank sponsored Scot was assured of a share of 23rd place - and the top 28 and ties are guaranteed full playing rights for the new season.
Lynn, who had finished too far down the money table to retain her player's card at the end of her second season as a tour pro, bogeyed the second and the eighth and, at two over par for the round, was in danger of sliding out of the leading 28.
But the former Scottish women's amateur champion responded to the challenged, got a grip of her nerves and covered her last 12 holes in one under par. She birdied the 12th and had pars at every other hole from the ninth to the 18th.

Well done, Lynn!
Ireland's Martina Gillen also looks safe, in which case she will be relinquishing her amateur status. Martina is in joint 27th place on 293 (74 77 72 70) with only the leaders to finish.
We'll be back at the end of play with a full summary of the final day's play.
