Winner of Murcia Ladies Open to be decided by play off tomorrow

After both shooting 70 in the final round of the Murcia Ladies Open to finish at five under par 214, the defending champion Julie Tvede from Denmark and Spain’s Carlota Ciganda will resume play on Sunday morning. The two players played the par five 18th twice in the play-off, both recording birdies each time but were unable to continue due to darkness.
Heather MacRae (Gleneagles) was the top Scot, finishing T9 on 223 with scores of 76, 70 and 77. She had a double bogey 6 at the 15th for the second successive day.
Pamela Pretswell  finished one shot behind Heather but T17 was her final position after rounds of 73, 75 and 76. She had a birdie 3 at the 14th in the final round. The same hole cost her a double bogey 6 in the first round.This is acrditable performance in this, a professional competition and a good practice for the january's LET Qualifying School which is being played over the same course.
