Maguires in Helen Holm Mix

Lisa Maguire

Leona and Lisa Maguire were in first and joint fifth position respectively at the end of the second round of the Helen Holm Scottish Women's Open Amateur Strokeplay Championship in Ayrshire yesterday.

There have been only two big women's amateur championships in Europe so far this year and Leona won the Portuguese title and Lisa the Spanish championship.

Leona is in pole position to make it a family hat-trick with scores of 69 and 72 for a nine-under-par total of 141, one shot ahead of Dunfermline schoolteacher Louise Kenney (71-71) and England's Charlotte Ellis (73-69). Lisa Maguire is on 145 after rounds of 73 and 72.
