Wednesday saw day four of the ORMA Consulting Easter Golf Challenge

A glimpse at McKay's score card?????
Golf de la Pree is in pretty good condition and soaked up the heavy overnight rain without a problem. Parts of the course are already very hard underfoot and this might auger very trying conditions come the summer. We started around 3.00pm and this was a good time to play. The day had cooled a bit and the course was more or less empty. We followed a four but by the time they had lost another ball on the second hole and needed to have all four of them look for it, they waved us through. It was the 17th hole before we caught up with another group.

There has been a bit of a reversal in playing styles. Last year McKay was all about the 60 degree wedge / flop shot in the short game. This year he has have gone for the chip and run and Annika has taken over the lob wedge - needless to say with great aplomb and good effect.

It was a much better day on the course for McKay who only lost three balls this time. Annika maintained her form and after four rounds is well in to triple figures for the combined stableford, McKay has yet to reach 50.
The last round of the tournament is today so if McKay eagles all the holes and yer one gets zero the result will be more balanced but she will still be the leader.
