Krystle Caithness has second round 74
HIGH WINDS DISRUPT US COLLEGE
WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP
Krystle Caithness returned a creditable two-over-par 74 for a 36-hole halfway tally of 150 before high winds forced a second and final suspension of play on the second day of the NCAA Division 1 women's golf championship over the University of New Mexico course at Albuquerque.
The Scot, who flies home at the weekend to join the rest of the Curtis Cup team for the match against the United States at St Andrews, was one of less than half the field who were able to complete their second rounds before play was halted for the day at 4.55pm.
There had been an earlier suspension from 1.10 to 3.15pm.
Even worse weather is forecast for Friday.
Caithness had birdies at the first, 11th and 13th but a double bogey 5 at the short 2nd knocked her back and she dropped further shots at the eighth and 18th n halves of 39 and 35.
English girls champion Ellie Givens (Denver) has scored 77 and 78 for 155. She had one birdie, at the 13th, in halves of 39.
Ireland's Danielle McVeigh still has to complete her second round.
Spanish players were the leaders in the clubhouse - former British women's open amateur champion Belen Mozo (Southern California) on 140 (69-71) and Azahara Munoz (Arizona State), a past British girls' open title-winner, on 141 (69-72).
