Ireland's Leona Maguire moves into contention in Saudi Arabia

The Cavan golfer produced a stunning 64 today.

IRELAND’S LEONA Maguire put herself in contention for the Saudi Ladies International after a stunning 64.

The Cavan golfer had a difficult start and found herself 10 shots off the lead after the opening today.

However, a marked improvement saw the 29-year-old register eight birdies while she didn’t drop a single shot in comparison to three the previous day in difficult conditions.

Play is still ongoing, but at the time of writing, Maguire is tied for fifth on four-under-par alongside Amy Yang of South Korea and Taiwan’s Pei-Yun Chien.

Belgium’s Manon De Roey and Patty Tavatanakit of Thailand lead the way on seven-under-par, while Denmark’s Nicole Broch Estrup and South Africa’s Paula Reto trail them by one and two shots respectively.
