RECAP ON QUALIFYING ROUND
After a night of thunderstorms, competitors at the Lancome Irish Girls' Close faced a very challenging Castletroy golf course as they bid to qualify for the matchplay stages in what is the biggest competition of the year for many.
Added to the resulting surface water, players also had to endure a 30 minute delay this morning due to fog.
However, the single qualifying round was completed with Jessica Carty (Hollywood), who will represent Ireland at the European Young Masters next month, returning the lowest score to be leading qualifier for the match-play stages, thanks to a 3 over par round of 76.
This was three shots ahead of nearest challenger Julie Coyne of Youghal.
