LADIES EUROPEAN TOUR

CATRIONA AND CLARE MAKE CUT IN SWEDEN

Catriona Matthew and Clare Queen survived the 36-hole cut in the Scandinavia TPC tournament at Bro-Balsta, Sweden but Kathryn Imrie, Julie Forbes and Lynn Kenny did not.
Lynn Kenny's failure to be involved in the final round was the most surprising as she looked to be sitting pretty after a first-round 72 ... but she folded to an eight-over-par 81 second time out.
Miss Kenny had a triple bogey at the eighth and a double bogey at the 14th with not a single birdie to offset these mishaps.
Catriona Matthew has had a 74 and 70 to be sharing 16th place on two-under-par 144.
Clare Queen is in joint 57th place on 148 after a 77 and 71.
Loreno Ochoa (Mexico), a former star of the US college circuit, shot a brilliant second-round 65 to join Annika Sorenstam, the patron of the tournament, on the nine-under-par 137 mark.
