Wales’ Becky Morgan is tied for the lead on 10 under par with Denmark’s Nicole Broch Larsen heading into the final round of the Tipsport Golf Masters in the Czech Republic.

The pair are three strokes clear of a group of four players on seven under par - including England’s Melissa Reid - after building on course record-equalling scores of 62 in the first round by carding 70 and 68 respectively at Golf Park Pilsen on Saturday.

Morgan said: "I’m a little bit disappointed with how I finished as I three-putted the last, so that was a bit annoying. I had two three putts today. I didn’t hit it any better yesterday than today I just didn’t make any putts."

Broch Larsen said: "For me, it was just my putter. Minus three is always good but right now I’m just a little disappointed because I didn’t make the putts I wanted and I finished with a par on nine, which is a great birdie opportunity. But I’m still up there, so I’m happy."

She said: "My game from tee to green is really good here. I’m struggling a bit with my putter but I’ve been playing some really good golf."

Belgium’s Chloe Leurquin moved into a share of 11th place after an excellent eight under par round of 63, which was the lowest score of the day.
