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