:00:28. > :00:37.St Andrews. The Old Course. The home of golf. But the next door
:00:38. > :00:42.neighbour is a young pup. Kingsbarns links. The young and the old, side
:00:43. > :00:47.by side. Today, past champions with the
:00:48. > :00:53.experience of winning do battle with bright young thing, eager to make
:00:54. > :00:58.their mark and lift the trophy, and siblings I am to emulate past family
:00:59. > :01:01.victories but they will all need to chase down someone with experience
:01:02. > :01:07.and a great lead looking forher first major title. It is the Women's
:01:08. > :01:10.British Open. Final round. Welcome once again to the
:01:11. > :01:16.spectacular setting here at kings barn, come the end of the day a new
:01:17. > :01:23.chapter will be written in the history of the Women's British Open.
:01:24. > :01:32.The big question is, can anyone catch Kim. She has taken control
:01:33. > :01:38.three rounds in the 60 and she has a six shot lead over Moriya
:01:39. > :01:45.Jutanugarn. Inbee Park on ten under. Stacy Lewis nine under. It is Kim in
:01:46. > :02:17.pole position. On the tee from Korea In-Kyung Kim.
:02:18. > :02:24.So our leader has her final round under way. Has been so impressive.
:02:25. > :02:29.Just two drop shots in the Championship so far, is she has won
:02:30. > :02:34.twice on the LPGA Tour this season already but so far a major has
:02:35. > :02:38.eLieutenant lewded her. Second at the Prince operation and the women's
:02:39. > :02:42.open in the past. She finished third seven years ago in this
:02:43. > :02:45.Championship, could this be the day for In-Kyung Kim? It is certainly
:02:46. > :02:51.not won yet. There are burdens to be had as some
:02:52. > :02:56.the earlier starters are showing. Lizette Salas began the day on
:02:57. > :03:04.four-under par. This was a birdie putt on 18. It would stop just short
:03:05. > :03:14.but a simple tap in for par and a Boeing free round of 67. -- bogey.
:03:15. > :03:19.Nine under for the Championship. Michelle Wie was the overnight
:03:20. > :03:23.leader after round one. She began today ten shots behind Kim but she
:03:24. > :03:28.has been charging back up the leaderboard. That was for birdie off
:03:29. > :03:34.the fourth, her second of the day. So that moves Wie to within seven
:03:35. > :03:36.shots on ten under. Lizette Salas is the clubhouse leader after 67 and
:03:37. > :03:41.Jodi Ewart Shadoff has started brightly. A birdie at the second,
:03:42. > :03:49.she is one under through her first three holes. Among those in the
:03:50. > :03:54.clubhouse early on Sophie lamb. Let us get back to what is happening on
:03:55. > :04:01.the course, with your commentators Peter Alliss, Ken Brown, Helen after
:04:02. > :04:04.fell son and Maureen. Hanging lie at the second for Stacy Lewis, she will
:04:05. > :04:06.aim at the front left hand corner of the green. Trying to use the
:04:07. > :04:32.contours. What a wonderful shot from Stacy
:04:33. > :04:37.Lewis. I think she enjoyed that one. Michelle Wie why birdied. This is a
:04:38. > :04:43.chance on the firth. -- fifth. That is is a good stroke.
:04:44. > :04:52.In she goes and up to 10-under for Michelle Wie who opened with that
:04:53. > :04:58.fabulous 64 on the first day. In-Kyung Kim. A little one to open
:04:59. > :05:03.with a birdie, extend her lead. Five years ago she was that distance of
:05:04. > :05:05.putt away from her first major, she missed it, lost in the play off,
:05:06. > :05:19.needs to lay that ghost to rest. Ally McDonald, rolling in a nice
:05:20. > :05:27.birdie putt, that gets her to 11-under. Moving in the right
:05:28. > :05:34.direction. Stacy Lewis. Wonderful, wonderful
:05:35. > :05:41.second shot. And the simplest of eagles moves the
:05:42. > :05:47.American to 11-under par. Michelle is ball above feet, that
:05:48. > :05:52.sort of exaggerated posture. She smacks it away, looked a good clean
:05:53. > :05:55.hit. That was a corker, that is a beauty.
:05:56. > :06:04.I tell you, she has the flavour today.
:06:05. > :06:12.Stacy Lewis now with this awkward bunker shot.
:06:13. > :06:27.She played it well. Unfortunate not to get a bit more back spin on that.
:06:28. > :06:38.This for her fourth birdie. What an easy game it is. Happy days are here
:06:39. > :06:41.again. Lewis to save her par, no, drop
:06:42. > :06:59.shot, goes back to ten. Michelle Wie has been on fire today.
:07:00. > :07:06.Four birdies in her first six hole, she is under to 11-under.
:07:07. > :07:11.Very scenic little par-3 and a very attackable hole location today. Oh,
:07:12. > :07:19.go, go, it is going to be another tap in birdie for Michelle.
:07:20. > :07:29.Hyo Joo Kim holding another birdie putt. Shot 61 a couple of years.
:07:30. > :07:36.Still the lowest round in my major. She has taken a drop from a bush, so
:07:37. > :07:41.this is proving to be a costly hole. It is delightfully played shot. What
:07:42. > :07:47.a wonderful shot there and what a great recovery, a great tussle going
:07:48. > :07:55.on between Maguire and Sophie lamb who shot 69 earlier on.
:07:56. > :08:18.Inbee Park, for a bogey at the third. Good save, a shot gone.
:08:19. > :08:24.Lewis. Lovely shot. Friendly flag position on this punch bowl green.
:08:25. > :08:29.Check on the leaderboard. Kim still leads the way by six. Michelle Wie
:08:30. > :08:33.is on a great run as indeed is Lexi Thompson who has had a couple of
:08:34. > :08:38.birdies to go to 10-under with nine to play. Further down, well Park is
:08:39. > :08:47.4-under, the rest of them are all treading water and hoping for a
:08:48. > :08:52.decent prize. Very good approach shot into this
:08:53. > :08:58.difficult sixth hole for Jodi Ewart Shadoff and an even better putt.
:08:59. > :09:03.Putting in a strong bid to make the European Solheim Cup team, which
:09:04. > :09:13.will be announced later today. Stacy Lewis, birdie putt at the fourth.
:09:14. > :09:19.Well done. Moving steadily up the leaderboard. 11-under now.
:09:20. > :09:23.Par, eagle, bogey, birdie. A fine view of the course. It is
:09:24. > :09:26.interesting when you get an opportunity to look at farmland on
:09:27. > :09:32.the left, which runs into the golf course, which is very attractive,
:09:33. > :09:36.that is all it wases, very ordinary farmland of 20 odd years ago and
:09:37. > :09:39.they have created this very very pretty golf course. Very enjoyable
:09:40. > :09:47.course. Jodi Ewart Shadoff. For a birdie,
:09:48. > :09:51.she is 10-under. Par-3, that is, travelling a bit spady, but, that
:09:52. > :09:58.broke the speed limit I am sure when it went in. It disappeared. 11-under
:09:59. > :10:03.now. Caroline Masson has reached the
:10:04. > :10:09.seventh. Nine on, nine from the left, it is
:10:10. > :10:14.down in a little basin. It is is a very very friendly flag position.
:10:15. > :10:25.Come on, we might see a hole-in-one yet here today.
:10:26. > :10:33.Kim on the par-5 eighth. Great putt, remained rock steady
:10:34. > :10:40.over that one. That is her fourth birdie today.
:10:41. > :10:42.Tiptoeing up that board. Masson for birdie at the seventh.
:10:43. > :11:03.Good tee shot. Well done. Wie, to the ninth, second shot.
:11:04. > :11:08.Had a chance at the last to go 13-under. Couldn't take it.
:11:09. > :11:13.Over the gorse, over the hillocks. And another cracking shot. Unlucky
:11:14. > :11:19.it didn't go forward another four or five feet.
:11:20. > :11:27.Two good shots from Jodi Ewart Shadoff gets her to the very fringe
:11:28. > :11:39.of the eighth. Up a couple of tyres, running helter-skelter. Steady,
:11:40. > :11:44.excellent effort. -- tiers. Wie, can she get another birdie to
:11:45. > :11:51.wind up a wonderful nine holes? She can. Well done, well done indeed.
:11:52. > :12:01.Out in 30, with a couple of missed opportunities.
:12:02. > :12:09.Jodi Ewart Shadoff. Nicely done. We have seen some good putts in the
:12:10. > :12:15.last half an hour or so. 12-under, just two players ahead of her now.
:12:16. > :12:20.Kim still leads by five shots. Michelle Wie putting on a bit of a
:12:21. > :12:22.charge. 6-under for her opening nine holes.
:12:23. > :12:31.Stacy Lewis is playing some good stuff too. Let us look at Michelle
:12:32. > :12:37.Wie's start. Start. This was her birdie chance. That moved her
:12:38. > :12:49.instantly to 8-under par. At the fourth. Another great putt.
:12:50. > :12:53.These are real bonuses. She has a bit of momentum going at
:12:54. > :12:57.the fifth. The pin the right at the back of the
:12:58. > :13:02.green. Difficult to get, just wriggles in the side door and
:13:03. > :13:13.suddenly she is 10-under. Sixth. Watch this. Long par-4, 438
:13:14. > :13:18.yards, ball above her feet, awkward. She is carrying a nine and 11 wood.
:13:19. > :13:22.This was a nine we thought. Slipped by but she nudged it in for
:13:23. > :13:26.11-under. This is starting to become something
:13:27. > :13:30.special. Tee shot the short seventh, playing 122 yards, a bang to the
:13:31. > :13:36.right of the flag and she just, watch this, checks into it and you
:13:37. > :13:45.think it has to, surely Shirley, surely Shirley, but it doesn't. The
:13:46. > :13:53.simplest of twos. Right under the hole, putting back up the hill.
:13:54. > :14:00.13-under par. It could be a low one, we have had 60 at Kingsbarns in the
:14:01. > :14:07.past with the men. Birdie chance for Masson. Ripped
:14:08. > :14:16.into the back. Top ten last week in Scotland, back-to-back birdie,
:14:17. > :14:24.11-under. In-Kyung Kim. Threated it through
:14:25. > :14:27.the narrow gap. Long, thin narrow green at the sixth. Another
:14:28. > :14:32.excellent shot. She seems to be in command of her game. She is going to
:14:33. > :14:36.be difficult to catch. We can say as much as we need somebody to really
:14:37. > :14:41.make a charge, but when you have that kind of lead, you also need the
:14:42. > :14:45.leader to drop back, and she is looking and there is no signs that
:14:46. > :14:51.we can see that she is thinking of etch dropping anything.
:14:52. > :14:58.Jodi Ewart Shadoff on the ninth for birdie.
:14:59. > :15:08.To go 13-under. Excellent putt. And she is joining
:15:09. > :15:14.Michelle Wie at 13-under. That puts her in a tie of second
:15:15. > :15:19.place alongside Michelle Wie on 13-under par, a birdie two for Lexi
:15:20. > :15:24.Thompson at the 11th hole, that moves her up to 11-under par. A bit
:15:25. > :15:27.further down the leaderboard. Charley Hull going along nicely.
:15:28. > :15:30.8-under for the Championship and Paula Creamer, a qualifier this
:15:31. > :15:46.week, she is also on 8-under par. Jodie going on nicely, that is a
:15:47. > :15:50.fantastic shot. A chance, a really good chance for a birdie at number
:15:51. > :15:58.10. Lexi Thompson here on 13th.
:15:59. > :16:07.An eagle putt. That is is a big swing, as we can see right there.
:16:08. > :16:14.She's found her game again. A little bit of a disaster at the end of
:16:15. > :16:19.yesterday's round. This is a nice pace, Ken. That is the pace we
:16:20. > :16:23.should be on. Look at the -- we've got the need for speed.
:16:24. > :16:32.Lexi Thompson, she is at the 13th. Her eagle putt came short, this
:16:33. > :16:38.short par-4 today this for a birdie. Ally McDonald. Birdie chance at the
:16:39. > :16:40.eighth. Has he got it is? She certainly has. 11-under.
:16:41. > :16:52.Nine behind. After a very nice shot here on
:16:53. > :16:57.tenth. Jodie has a burr putt to go
:16:58. > :17:04.14-under. Going into second place all by
:17:05. > :17:08.herself, four shots off the lead. Stacy Lewis, for her birdie here. On
:17:09. > :17:24.eight and she makes it. 236 to the pin, well in range for
:17:25. > :17:29.Georgia Hall. She has to get the right bounce. Where is he she going
:17:30. > :17:36.to land it judgment up over the hill, this could be really close.
:17:37. > :17:39.Magnificent shot. Way back, Lee Westwood holed on here
:17:40. > :17:46.for an albatross two, what a cracker.
:17:47. > :17:54.Michelle Wie in blistering form. She has arrived at the shortest hole
:17:55. > :18:03.on the golf course. Enjoying her best season since she
:18:04. > :18:08.won the US Open in 2014. Georgia Hall had an absolutely
:18:09. > :18:13.splendid second shot on eight, but a run of seven pars so far, needs to
:18:14. > :18:23.get on the eagle and birdie trail as fast as possible. Comfortable
:18:24. > :18:41.looking putting stance. Well, it is going to be just a birdie. 12th
:18:42. > :18:48.hole, birdie putt, Michelle Wie. Can't be. It is. My word she has her
:18:49. > :18:53.putting boots on, that is her seventh birdie today and she is now
:18:54. > :18:55.four behind In-Kyung Kim, and surely In-Kyung Kim can hear these players
:18:56. > :19:10.thundering up behind her. Georgia Hall breaks her run of seven
:19:11. > :19:21.pars with a birdie. Moves to 12-under.
:19:22. > :19:30.Stacy Lewis is having one of those Marty Feldman moments. Jodi Ewart
:19:31. > :19:35.Shadoff had a mighty fine run. Let us look at some of it.
:19:36. > :19:43.This is at the sixth. She birdied the second. Very little yesterday.
:19:44. > :19:49.And easily done. Not many birdies at six, but that was one of them.
:19:50. > :19:53.Moving on to seven, we saw lots of birdies here.
:19:54. > :20:03.Her golf ball seems to have eyes and that took her to 10-under par.
:20:04. > :20:09.A birdie at six and seven, what happened at eight? A tricky one this
:20:10. > :20:14.one, she hit it in so firmly, the brake didn't have to be taken into
:20:15. > :20:17.account at all. Birdie at eight. Now she is beginning to set up
:20:18. > :20:23.opportunities on every single hole. Here we go on nine.
:20:24. > :20:31.And in that one go, she is out in 31. At that stage 13-under par.
:20:32. > :20:36.At the tenth, very few birdies at ten, front right pin a bit spooky,
:20:37. > :20:43.there is a lovely high quality shot with a bit of, a bit of Chubby
:20:44. > :20:48.Checker on it. She tapped that one in to move to
:20:49. > :20:54.14-under. Terrific stuff. Well Lewis has been back and forward
:20:55. > :20:59.on this ninth, this is for bogey. And that is going to be a
:21:00. > :21:06.disappointing double for Stacy Lewis. Well, this small one for
:21:07. > :21:10.In-Kyung Kim to get to 19-under, that is the Championship record. It
:21:11. > :21:15.was the winning score in 2004 at Sunningdale.
:21:16. > :21:27.And in it goes. She is like a machine. 19-under par, five ahead.
:21:28. > :21:32.Doesn't seem to be lies too badly here for Georgia Hall. Not able to
:21:33. > :21:37.get any check on that wet grass. Short shot. Probably got a little
:21:38. > :21:51.blade of grass between the blade of the club and the ball. Come on Lexi.
:21:52. > :22:05.Pushed it... It does make you cross. Six on a par-5. Especially as long
:22:06. > :22:12.as she is. This would be a great save if Georgia could steer this one
:22:13. > :22:17.home. It has not got the legs. Well the error was going through the
:22:18. > :22:29.back two, virtually impossible up and down from there, that is a shot
:22:30. > :22:34.going. Drops back to 11-under. Jodi Ewart Shadoff. A birdie here
:22:35. > :22:36.will be birdie number six in a row, it was a par-5 pin at the very back
:22:37. > :22:57.of the green. Shanshan Feng at the 18th. Her
:22:58. > :23:05.birthday yesterday. 67, 11-under par.
:23:06. > :23:12.Love her outfits. Well done. First Chinese player to get an LPGA
:23:13. > :23:19.card. Always smiling. Record high prize money for the
:23:20. > :23:23.Women's British Open, the winner takes home ?387,000. Total prize
:23:24. > :23:29.fund 2.5 million. So plenty to play for.
:23:30. > :23:41.Is the birdie run going to continue for Jodi Ewart Shadoff? All good
:23:42. > :23:46.things come to an end She has had five birdies in a row. That merely a
:23:47. > :23:50.par. But what a great time of year to run
:23:51. > :23:59.into this form. Another major coming up in a couple of week, the Evian
:24:00. > :24:08.but before that the Solheim Cup. Anna Nordqvist. Battled glandular
:24:09. > :24:17.fever and a bad throat this week. Birdie 17 and birdied 18, that is a
:24:18. > :24:21.fine one. In at 11-under par. And she will be resting up now for the
:24:22. > :24:58.Solheim Cup, but there is plenty of golf to watch here on the BBC.
:24:59. > :25:07.We are all looking forward to the US PGA Championship live, we will be
:25:08. > :25:12.there and you will enjoy it with us. Now our leader and she has missed
:25:13. > :25:19.one, that is only the third shot she has missed since Thursday. A glimmer
:25:20. > :25:28.of hope for those chasing. Nine holes completed.
:25:29. > :25:33.Here is Macguys are in the tussle for the Smith salver for the low
:25:34. > :25:40.amateur. That is not good news for the Irish fans. So Macguys are drops
:25:41. > :25:43.back to 3-under. Sophie Lamb is in the clubhouse so looks like the
:25:44. > :25:50.English champion is going to take the honours. This was Sophie Lamb on
:25:51. > :25:55.the 18th with a birdie put, for her closing 69 in the Championship. She
:25:56. > :26:00.certainly made hay while the sun shone earlier on and that was a very
:26:01. > :26:07.very fine performance from the young English champion, taking the Smith
:26:08. > :26:17.salver. There were six amateurs plays. Three
:26:18. > :26:23.made the cut. Leona Macguys are won the salver last year. What does it
:26:24. > :26:27.do to someone to be part of this kind of champion I ship, a major up
:26:28. > :26:31.against the best players in the world? It is something everyone
:26:32. > :26:35.dreams of when they first start to play golf. It has been a great
:26:36. > :26:38.experience to see how my game compares to the best of the world.
:26:39. > :26:42.It has been good. The usual questions tend to come after winning
:26:43. > :26:47.the top amateur at a major, professionalism, where are you in
:26:48. > :26:50.that sort of state at the moment? My goal is for Curtis Cup next year,
:26:51. > :26:54.hopefully that is something I want to achieve before I turn
:26:55. > :26:59.professional and possibly Q school the end of next year, I am not sure,
:27:00. > :27:02.that is not definite. Curtis Cup is something I want to do. We wish you
:27:03. > :27:18.all the best. Well done this week. Thank you.
:27:19. > :27:23.Stacy Lewis. She has had a couple of untidy holes. She has kept going
:27:24. > :27:29.pretty well. In at the 13th. Eagle. Tremendous
:27:30. > :27:37.second shot and what about that for a good ball? Those eagles will
:27:38. > :27:43.smarten up your card. Michelle Wie has reached the 15th.
:27:44. > :27:50.Just played her second shot down here, into her favourite yardage,
:27:51. > :27:58.and now it is all out attack. She has been pretty deadly with
:27:59. > :28:05.those today. She is doing her best to close the gap on In-Kyung Kim.
:28:06. > :28:08.Lewis for birdie on 11. Straightens the knee, in goes the
:28:09. > :28:18.ball. And Stacy Lewis up to 11-under. Jodi
:28:19. > :28:22.Ewart Shadoff for a birdie at the 13th.
:28:23. > :28:45.Well done, she is on a great roll. Georgia Hall. Bringing it in from
:28:46. > :28:59.right-to-left. Trying to chase it up the green.
:29:00. > :29:13.Wie for a birdie at the 15th. She's done it. Oh... Oh, only another
:29:14. > :29:20.teaspoon full of juice and it would have gone in. Who knows what might
:29:21. > :29:25.have happened, or might still happen? Georgia Hall right at the
:29:26. > :29:33.far end of the course, 11th, tucked right up in the corner.
:29:34. > :29:38.Hasn't really happened for Georgie today, only had one birdie, one
:29:39. > :29:49.bogey. That might do. That is more like it.
:29:50. > :30:03.A few of them will cheer us up will stop this is a very dangerous shot
:30:04. > :30:15.for our leader. She can run up a big score if she does not say a clean,
:30:16. > :30:22.straight shot. It is not going to be too bad. It could have been a lot
:30:23. > :30:29.worse. It will be a struggle to get down in two for a par-5. Lexi
:30:30. > :30:41.Thompson at the 18th. Through the green with the second.
:30:42. > :30:49.Michelle wee, second shot to the 16th. What she wouldn't give for a
:30:50. > :30:54.birdie or two. Playing quite majestically. There is another one,
:30:55. > :31:20.right at the target. She has had a fiddly round. She has
:31:21. > :31:28.had fewer chances. A good run of birdies. A few shots thrown away. On
:31:29. > :31:52.the 12th, a short par-3. Now our leader here in three on this
:31:53. > :32:01.par-5. Look at that! A lovely touch. An exquisite touch. A lonely vigil.
:32:02. > :32:15.Michelle wee for a birdie at the 16th. This will be a fine one. Roll
:32:16. > :32:21.in. Oh, goodness gracious. She has had a few chances and they have all
:32:22. > :32:27.been left right in the centre of the whole, short by three or four
:32:28. > :32:38.inches. What might have been! Our leader with one of those nasty
:32:39. > :32:48.putts. This for a par. Yes. Nerves of steel. Well done. Nothing seems
:32:49. > :32:52.to rattle her now. All the sports psychologists tell you to play
:32:53. > :33:00.within yourself and that is what she is doing. Hall with a birdie at the
:33:01. > :33:09.12th. Up the slope. Now up she comes. Run, run, run. Yes. Better
:33:10. > :33:17.late than never. Is she on a roll? That will do her no harm at all. On
:33:18. > :33:25.her second shot here at 18 standing at 11-under, shin. It would be nice
:33:26. > :33:30.to finish with the birdie. The weather is getting worse by the
:33:31. > :33:39.second. A very nice shot. Gives her a chance for a birdie. Masson, 14
:33:40. > :33:44.for birdie. One of the really tough holes today. Nothing but the ocean
:33:45. > :33:51.on the right side. Tough to adjust when a lot of rain comes down and
:33:52. > :33:56.makes the green a lot slower. Going for a birdie at the final hole. This
:33:57. > :34:01.to finish at 12-under par. Well done.
:34:02. > :34:09.That is the equivalent of four rounds of 69th of that is good
:34:10. > :34:18.playing and trying conditions. Caroline Masson for par. Gives
:34:19. > :34:27.herself a little tester. She did not look as firm on that one. Dropping
:34:28. > :34:39.one. Michelle wee with her third shot at the 17th.
:34:40. > :34:50.-- Wie. Check on the situation as we come to the end of this year's Ricoh
:34:51. > :34:55.women's British Open. A three shot lead by In Kyung Kim. Many strange
:34:56. > :35:08.things can happen. Inbee Park for birdie. On 13. That is more like it.
:35:09. > :35:18.That is the player we know. One of the greatest putting strokes I have
:35:19. > :35:23.ever seen. Michelle Wie trying to get a par after having been in
:35:24. > :35:30.trouble off the tee. A slight right to left.
:35:31. > :35:38.Oh, what a good effort! I was robbed.
:35:39. > :36:02.I cake him here for her birdie on 13. -- I cake -- IK Kim. Michelle
:36:03. > :36:27.Wie with a second shot on 18. Not a good shot from where she was
:36:28. > :36:35.but it should not be difficult to get that up and down. This dean and
:36:36. > :36:41.a here on 17. It is a very long would in. We have seen nothing but
:36:42. > :36:52.short irons on this point. It makes a whole very tough. She does not
:36:53. > :36:57.make it look very tough. Very nice. Michelle Wie, 13-under par. This
:36:58. > :36:59.will be a handy when to pop in for 14-under. A damp fringe. Generally
:37:00. > :37:21.uphill. She has a chance. 14th today. The third hardest hole.
:37:22. > :37:32.A bit damp reasons that you can run up a big number on that. -- damp
:37:33. > :37:41.breeze. She has found the rocks. She did not make a carry. Michelle Wie
:37:42. > :37:51.on 18. Finishing up with this for a park and a round of 56. She had a
:37:52. > :37:59.problem in between. The first and last was very good. Great playing
:38:00. > :38:01.today. Found the water off the tee at the 14th and dropped back to
:38:02. > :38:22.here. This is the third shot. That was a nice kick out. You never
:38:23. > :38:31.know, it might be the one drop/. Wie still leads by three. A lovely day
:38:32. > :38:37.for Michelle Wie. Amy caught up with her. You flew out of the blocks
:38:38. > :38:42.today. What a front line. I knew I was ten shots back at the start of
:38:43. > :38:47.the day and needed to make something happen. I am proud of myself how I
:38:48. > :38:55.chased it today. I had a lot of fun. You are back up challenging in
:38:56. > :39:01.Majors. Do you feel the next one is coming? I do not think about that. I
:39:02. > :39:07.am proud of how I played in the Majors this year. It is fun being in
:39:08. > :39:10.contention. I am itching for the next win. A lot needs to happen
:39:11. > :39:17.before that. You cannot get too caught up in the result. I'm really
:39:18. > :39:23.happy. Eye-macro it started off so well. 64 on Thursday and finishing
:39:24. > :39:28.well again today. What do you take from a week at Kingsbarns? I had so
:39:29. > :39:37.much fun. The course was so amazing. Good week overall. I cannot
:39:38. > :39:42.complain. This for a birdie. This could rattle In Kyung Kim a little
:39:43. > :39:49.if she can make this. And she does. Only two behind now. Kim start with
:39:50. > :39:54.a six shot lead and now it is down to two. One of those horrible things
:39:55. > :39:59.we worked so hard all day to try to make a birdie and you make one
:40:00. > :40:19.mistake and that costs you. This for a bogey on 14.
:40:20. > :40:28.That is quite costly the way it has all clamped up at the top. This is
:40:29. > :40:39.your shadow off after a wonderful birdie on 17.
:40:40. > :40:47.-- Ewart-Shadoff. I wonder if she knows what is happening, she knows
:40:48. > :40:51.it is only two who could make the putt. That would be a little bit
:40:52. > :40:59.more difficult. All of a sudden it seems nothing when he have a six
:41:00. > :41:15.shot lead. Eye-macro her little jacket getting in the way. Very
:41:16. > :41:30.nicely done. That was a testy one. Find the bottom of the Cup. 18 and.
:41:31. > :41:37.Right, this is a big shot. 9-iron. Pitched. My goodness, that was bad
:41:38. > :41:48.luck. Another yard. Next to the flag. Oh! The flag is cut teasingly
:41:49. > :41:54.on the right-hand side of the green. Anything that is even pushed a
:41:55. > :42:08.whisker is in danger of tumbling down into the creek. Just needs to
:42:09. > :42:17.be sensible. The ball is high. Percentage play. This would set a
:42:18. > :42:33.New Course record of 63, breaking Michelle's record of 64 from
:42:34. > :42:46.Thursday. It was a good effort. I am sure there are a few collywobbles.
:42:47. > :42:52.Look at that! Born free. Supposed to finish at 16-under par. Check your
:42:53. > :43:01.line and trust your stroke. Suddenly two and a half feet is quite a long
:43:02. > :43:13.one. Come on. Brilliantly done. What around to finish with. 33, 64, 31,
:43:14. > :43:22.33. She may have done enough. Who knows? She has secured a lot. Second
:43:23. > :43:28.in the British Open. Could be first. That is how it stands at the moment.
:43:29. > :43:33.In Kyung Kim still in front. The lead has dwindled to in the course
:43:34. > :43:42.of the day. A great round by Michelle Wie. The start is Jodie
:43:43. > :43:47.Ewart-Shadoff. You had to give it something today and you did. You
:43:48. > :43:54.gave it everything. I did not think I would have a shot. I started out
:43:55. > :43:59.really strong. I hold a great putt on the 1st hole. My party was really
:44:00. > :44:05.on fire. I had a great stretch in the middle of the round to get me
:44:06. > :44:07.going and I just saw myself at the start of the round take the
:44:08. > :44:13.opportunities when I get them and that is what I did. Still a lot of
:44:14. > :44:17.golf to be played. You might even be back out there. I will sue happens.
:44:18. > :44:24.I ker such a strong player and I hope she finishes strong. How do you
:44:25. > :44:29.reflect on this week? It has been great. I did not have that much
:44:30. > :44:34.confidence coming into this week, missing the cut. This week has been
:44:35. > :44:42.a great boost of confidence. I'm excited to go to Solheim in a couple
:44:43. > :44:48.of weeks and play there. Masson, only a wedge into the last.
:44:49. > :45:00.Beautifully played. She will give herself a chance to move out the
:45:01. > :45:06.time she is in with Jenny Shin at 12 at the moment. At one point today
:45:07. > :45:11.the lead was as much as seven. It is now down to to macro. It would be a
:45:12. > :45:28.rare bonus if she manages to squeeze a birdie out of this half five. --
:45:29. > :45:42.par-5. You can see the moisture there on the green. No birdies so
:45:43. > :45:49.far. Three holes from home. Caroline Masson has had a big look at this.
:45:50. > :46:05.It is very hard to take the line. Just to close with the birdie. What
:46:06. > :46:10.a nice way to finish. 67. In a tie for the third position. Top ten and
:46:11. > :46:18.the Scottish Open. It will be the top three this week, in the open.
:46:19. > :46:24.One of the most dangerous shots on the course, especially when you're
:46:25. > :46:29.going in with a word or a rescue. Stacey has used this club to great
:46:30. > :46:35.effect. She has hit some absolute beauties with it. Kim, second shot
:46:36. > :46:48.and difficult to get all the way to this back flag. A good bounce on.
:46:49. > :46:58.That did a bit better than it deserved. She just hit it a touch. A
:46:59. > :47:03.stunning second to setup this birdie opportunity. It is tracking well.
:47:04. > :47:21.Agony. Could not have been any closer. Lewis remains at 11-under.
:47:22. > :47:33.The last truly dangerous shot on the golf course. Great contact. It has
:47:34. > :47:40.just tipped it over. It should stick. Anxious moments. Kim for
:47:41. > :47:50.birdie on 16. She has looked at it from every possible angle. What they
:47:51. > :48:03.read that was. What a wonderful part. A great effort.
:48:04. > :48:14.Preserving her to macro shot lead. The dangerous 17th to come. What a
:48:15. > :48:24.break for Georgia Hall. A six here yesterday. Go on, run it out. If you
:48:25. > :48:33.want to leave a four footer, that is not a bad angle to cut it from. The
:48:34. > :48:43.sky is brightening up a little bit. Every putt is a big part. You can
:48:44. > :48:59.make all lose a lot of money on these. A good four. 13 and in a tie
:49:00. > :49:10.for third at the moment. A balanced finish of Stacey Lewis. Another good
:49:11. > :49:15.one. Looking for it to come back. Georgia Hall turned professional in
:49:16. > :49:19.2014. Although she had a card on the ladies European Tour, she did not
:49:20. > :49:25.have a lot of funds to get herself to the tournament. She went to Dubai
:49:26. > :49:29.and won a car. Took the money instead because you did not have a
:49:30. > :49:42.driving licence. From that point, she has not looked back. What good
:49:43. > :49:50.week it has been for her. This looks like the make or break shot. This is
:49:51. > :49:58.very much the make or break shot. It is a long way that. She has a thick
:49:59. > :50:04.end of 200 yards by the time she pictures it into the middle of the
:50:05. > :50:12.green. She has done it many times over the last nearly four days now.
:50:13. > :50:24.Let's see her do it again. Get it airborne. Looks good. Oh, a
:50:25. > :50:35.fantastic shot. Fantastic. It took guts and everything. You do it
:50:36. > :50:45.slowly but you do it well. Stacey Lewis trying to close out with a
:50:46. > :50:53.birdie. No. Not to be. That is the final four. A lot of good play from
:50:54. > :50:58.her. Hard to believe it is over three years since her last victory.
:50:59. > :51:07.I do not think we will be waiting to much longer. I don't think you will
:51:08. > :51:21.be needed on the voyage. What a good week she had. You never know. At the
:51:22. > :51:35.18th, this is tricky, very quick. Did not get a kind bounce. Her name
:51:36. > :51:42.is at the top of the leaderboard. If she can steer this one home for a
:51:43. > :51:47.birdie on 17 to give herself a three shot cushion. How lovely will that
:51:48. > :51:55.walk be at the last. It is a good part. It was a very fine effort. But
:51:56. > :52:02.a very dangerous hole, consigned to the history books. Five years ago
:52:03. > :52:08.she had a putt round about that size and missed it. She lost in the
:52:09. > :52:21.player. She is fighting some historical demons right at this
:52:22. > :52:30.moment. In she goes. One hole to go. Just one hole left and there is the
:52:31. > :52:37.trophy. Simple and exquisite. Georgia, come on. This bought a
:52:38. > :52:42.round of 70. What nerves and that she has displayed. What a fantastic
:52:43. > :52:46.week. She has introduced herself to a lot of American viewers and
:52:47. > :52:52.they'll be seeing more of this young lady at the Solheim Cup. Eye-macro
:52:53. > :53:04.and so come the final hole, this is normally the 1st hole. He week ago.
:53:05. > :53:19.The wide fairway. Watch the ball. Get it through. Lots of room out
:53:20. > :53:26.there. It is all right. The final scenes here at the Kingsbarns
:53:27. > :53:39.unravelling before our very eyes. A to macro shot lead.
:53:40. > :53:46.I think, 16, 17 yesterday killed it. There was a lot of rain and stuff. I
:53:47. > :53:54.had to cope with that. What is the biggest thing you will take moving
:53:55. > :53:59.forward? Some shots have been better. I made a couple of silly
:54:00. > :54:07.mistakes. Coming third and still playing well, that is the main
:54:08. > :54:17.thing. Kim with a to macro shot lead. One good clean, straight shot.
:54:18. > :54:22.A little heavy, was it? I think it is all right. Absolutely all right.
:54:23. > :54:38.One more spin over. That is very well done. Now called to knuckle,
:54:39. > :54:49.chin to chin. Maria. She has fought hard this week. Look at that! This
:54:50. > :54:51.is going to be a grandstand finish. What a beautiful shot! She is poised
:54:52. > :55:17.to win. In for a nice bonus. That super, spinning second shot has
:55:18. > :55:33.left her with this for a birdie. Just slips past. It will all add up
:55:34. > :55:45.to a slightly disappointing 75. And it is a tie for 16th spot for Maria.
:55:46. > :55:54.Spencer Coles at the end. Three putts for victory. Taking meticulous
:55:55. > :56:05.care. A bit quick, comes a little bit from the left. Come on. What a
:56:06. > :56:14.great effort! That is it. What a splendid week it has been for her.
:56:15. > :56:20.Absolutely first class. Played with great skill and nerve. She has won
:56:21. > :56:30.this year's Championship in good style. It is great to see the
:56:31. > :56:40.victory here. As Peter was saying, solid in every single department of
:56:41. > :56:47.the game. The scoring record of 19-under still stands. The final
:56:48. > :56:57.leaderboard tells another story. Kim Leeds by two. She played in some of
:56:58. > :57:03.the worst of the weather. Congratulations. You're clutching
:57:04. > :57:10.the trophy. How much of a mental battle was that? I would have to say
:57:11. > :57:14.I was aware of how well Trudy was playing and the other players were
:57:15. > :57:21.playing and I had to follow them. Not so easy conditions. Some holes
:57:22. > :57:30.were very tough yesterday. The day was easier. I was able to keep up
:57:31. > :57:35.with him. The gap was closing. Was it giving you nerves, you could see
:57:36. > :57:40.the players catching up with you? Sign up I think they had more
:57:41. > :57:45.nervous than I did. I did not have to make aggressive choices today
:57:46. > :57:51.that they had to do it. I feel like we had the same kind of nerves. I
:57:52. > :57:59.told myself if I don't win today, it is OK. That is what I told myself
:58:00. > :58:13.and I think it helped. You are now a major champion. Thank you. More
:58:14. > :58:22.goals to come. The final major of the year. All four days live from
:58:23. > :58:35.Quail Hollow. On BBC Two at quarter past 11. What a four days it has
:58:36. > :58:40.been. All in stunning surroundings here at Kingsbarns. At the end of it
:58:41. > :58:51.all we have a new major champion. I K Kim hurled her lead to become
