Stephaine Meadow believes she is 'in with a chance' of a medal after a strong finishing surge to the third round of the Olympic women's individual stroke play at the Kasumigaseki Country Club in Tokyo this morning.
Meadow was level par after 9 holes but the Jordanstown woman produced three birdies in her final six holes to post a 68, and leave her on seven-under for the tournament.

Meadow said that patience was key for her round. “Yeah definitely. The entire front – well, most of the round – I felt like if I just kept hitting it in there at some point, they’d have to drop.
