Sunningdale: Round Three stats

BBC Sport Online is at Sunningdale for the Weetabix British Open to provide statistics from the third round.


Best round of the day came from England's Lora Fairclough who shot a seven-under-par 67.

America's Dorothy Delasin had a disaster with a round of 12-over-par 84, the highest score of the day, which brought her from four under at the start of play to eight over for the tournament.

Catriona Matthew and Kasumi Fujii shared the lowest front nine. Both reached the turn in 32.

The lowest back nine came from Finland's Rikka Hakkarainen who got home in 32.

Easiest hole of the third round was the first with just three players bogeying it.


Overall, the 10th hole has been ranked the easiest throughout the tournament. There have been only 25 bogeys or worse over the four days.

The 15th, which yielded just one birdie, is the hardest hole of the third round.

The 12th has been the most tricky over the three days seeing only 23 birdies.

Kasumi Fujii had a dream start with two birdies and an eagle in her first three holes. However, her finish was less glorious, with a double bogey at the 18th.

Catriona Matthew boosted her eagle count with one at the ninth. She also claimed one at the 18th in the first round and had a hole-in-one in her second round.

Trish Johnson birdied her opening hole and then had thirteen pars in a row before a birdie at the 15th

Sweden's Marlene Hedblom hit seven birdies in her round of 69 to bring her tournament total to 16. Hedblom has birdied the 10th and the 14th in her three rounds so far.

Karrie Webb has had five birdies in each round.

Lora Fairclough and Raquel Carriedo both achieved the honour of not dropping a shot in their third rounds.

Each of the 70 players who made the cut achieved at least one birdie in their third round.
