Tom McKibbin falls back in Joburg Open; Cameron Smith leads Australian PGA Championship

Ireland’s Leona Maguire shot a 70 on day three of the Open de Espana at Alferini Golf Club to stay in contention with the leader Morgane Metraux.

The Cavan woman had a difficult start to her day with a double-bogey at the par-five second hole. However, the rest of her round was without a blemish on her card, with four birdies to shoot two under on the day and 12 under for the tournament. The leader Metraux shot a 67 on Saturday, which featured an eye-catching seven birdies and a single drop shot. The Swiss player is on 14 under.

The 17-year-old Spanish amateur Cayetana Fernandez fell back from the lead with a level-par 72, but remains in the group behind the leader with Maguire and Swede Caroline Hedwall, who shot a 69. Swedish player Linn Grant is five shots behind in tied ninth and is set to win the Race to Costa del Sol order of merit on the Ladies European Tour.
