The French Anne-Charlotte Mora is in third place on the eve of the third and final round. She is only one stroke behind the leading duo. What if this Saturday coincided with the first victory of a Frenchwoman on the LET this season?
Anne-Charlotte Mora, results
Friday Anne-Charlotte Mora recorded a second consecutive 70 (-2) and was even in the lead after sixteen holes before conceding two bogeys to complete her second round.
Never better ranked than eighth in her career (during the South African Women’s Open last year), Nantes is now on the heels of the two leaders, the Spaniard Ana Pelaez Trivino and the Swede Lisa Pettersson author of a brilliant 66 (- 6) Friday in the autonomous Finnish territory of Åland, located at sea.
13 players managed to play under par during the 2nd round, so it was a great performance that Emie Peronnin achieved by signing a 72 despite a double bogey on the par 5 hole 16. The player from L’Isle Adam grabbed valuable positions to break into the top 15.
Three other French representatives will be at the start of the last lap: Charlotte Liautier, Lucie Malchirand (+4, 40th) and Anais Meyssonnier (+8, 59th). Camille Chevalier (+9, 67th) fails a point from the ax while Alexandra Bonetti, Patricia Beliard and Astrid Vayson de Pradenne end up at the bottom of the classification.

to do. The Tour is similar to the Men’s European Challenge Tour, which has been around for much longer and has many more tournaments. The base of this tour is in France. In 2010 there were three tournaments between the end of March and the beginning of June, each tournament consisted of 54 holes.
Two more tournaments were added in the fall. At the end of this series, the three best professionals and the three best amateurs will receive an invitation to the French Open, which will take place in September. The best player will also receive a tour ticket for the next season.
Number two and three can go directly to the Finals of the Tour School. The Generali Ladies Tour would start in March 2010 with the Open at La Nivelle. However, the first lap was canceled due to snow on the track. The second round also turned out to be canceled, so it was decided to organize the tournament at a later date.
That was June 9-11. The Terre Blanche Ladies Open, also in March, thus became the first tournament of this tour. It was won by 25-year-old Caroline Afonso, it was the first win since she turned professional in late 2007. The second tournament was won by 23-year-old Jade Schaeffer, born on the island of Réunion but living in Paris.
Karen Lunn, president of the Ladies European Tour (LET}, played on La Nivelle to show her support. The 2012 tour saw an amateur win for the first time in a tournament: Scottish Curtis Cup player Pamela Pretswell won the Ljungbyhed Park Ladies Open by two strokes before turning pro.
The 2nd, 3rd and 4th place were also occupied by amateurs. Anastasia Kostina was the first Russian to win a LET tournament that year and received a wildcard to the Deloitte Ladies Open.
