She might have a seven-shot lead there is no romanticism about world number amateur Lottie Woad as she heads into the final round of the KPMG Women’s Irish Open at Carton House with a whopping seven-shot lead.

The 21-year-old English woman has the poise and the cold-eyed focus of a seasoned professional and after carding bogey-free, six-under 67 to match Elm Park’s Anna Foster and England’s Meghan MacLaren with the low round of the day, she plans to keep her foot on the gas and become the first amateur to win an LET event since 2022.
