However, she is still in the lead.

Hayley Davis, from England, and Leonie Harm, from Germany, are five strokes behind in a split second place.

They have played twelve and eleven holes respectively of the second round.

I had a good start today, but I put no putts, hit a couple of bad drives and finished an over par.

It's a disappointment, but I have two more days, ”says Norwegian Marianne Skarpnord, five-time European Tour winner, in a press release from the tournament.
