- Team Hall win the team competition with a score of -24
- Nelly Korda leads the individual by five shots with one round remaining
Team Hall triumphed in the team competition with a winning score of 24-under-par at the Aramco Team Series presented by PIF – London.
The quartet of Georgia Hall, Kylie Henry, Lea Anne Bramwell and amateur Michael Austick led overnight after play was suspended due to bad light.
Thunder and lightning on Saturday afternoon meant play was stopped for approximately 90 minutes and two teams were unable to complete their rounds and returned this morning.
Team Hall began their second round on Saturday morning having fired a score of 14-under-par on the opening day and despite incredibly windy conditions, they got off to a good start and were four-under through three holes.
It was on the back nine where the Team got going again gaining three shots on holes 11 and 12 before another on the 14th, they did drop a shot on the 15th but finished strong gaining three shots in the final two holes thanks to Captain Hall’s eagle on 18.
Speaking after their round, Hall said: “It is extremely breezy out there and my 3-wood only went two hundred yards, but obviously I’m very happy with that. It contributed a lot to the team score, and we’ll see where we are at at the end of the day.”
Scotland’s Henry wasn’t confident that -24 would be enough to take victory at the time, as she said: “I’m not so sure it will be enough because there are still so many holes to be played out there for so many people, it’s a bit of a wait-and-see.
“I think we’ve done really well anyway and it’s still going to be a really good finish for the team. I think we’re pretty happy with what we’ve done in these conditions.”
Bramwell added: “They were really difficult conditions and a couple of shots into the green were really hard to judge with the wind. It was really tricky.”
However with the final two teams having finished their round on Sunday morning it has been confirmed that Team Hall has won with a total of 24-under-par.
Team Hull came up just short after firing a round of five-under-par on the second day at Centurion Club to finish on 23-under-par.
Team Garcia finishes third at 21-under with Team Carta on 20-under in fourth and four teams in a tie for fifth place on 19-under-par.
In the Individual competition, world number two Korda leads the way on nine-under-par after firing a round of 69 (-4) on Saturday.
