Charley Hull four ahead in Under-13s
Northamptonshire’s Charley Hull holds a four-shot lead with one round to play in the English Under-13 girls’ championship at Ramside, Durham.
The 12-year-old from Kettering is level par after 36 holes. She scored a one-under 73 in the second round to overtake Cheshire’s Bronte Law at the top of the leaderboard. Charley had only one disappointing hole on her card: a double bogey 6 on the eighth.
For the rest, she had three birdies and 14 pars – and played the back nine in one-under. The four-handicapper is the Northamptonshire girls’ champion and plays in the county team. She’s been a prominent junior golfer since she was nine and won a national competition for club golfers organised by the LGU.
The field was cut after 36 holes to the leading 18 players and ties who will contest tomorrow’s final round. Altogether, 21 players qualified.
