English duo lead the way

A combination of youth and experience lead the Nykredit Masters after a wind-battered third round, with English duo Kiran Matharu and Kirsty Taylor tied on six under par at Helsinger in Denmark.

Matharu, an 18-year-old Ladies European Tour rookie, finished with a two-over-par 73. Taylor, who joined the Tour in 1995, carded a one-under 70 as the pair finished one stroke clear of compatriot Lisa Hall (69).
