Arwefjäll remains in the lead ahead of the final round

Sweden’s Kajsa Arwefjäll has defended her lead at the VP Bank Swiss Ladies Open in Holzhäusern and heads into Saturday’s final round with a three-stroke lead. After rounds of 64 and 66, the 26-year-old is on 12 under par and is in a strong position to claim her first victory on the Ladies European Tour.

In second place are the Australian Whitney Hillier and the Irishwoman Anna Foster (both on -9). Former tournament winner Alexandra Försterling (Germany) shares fourth place on -8.

From a Swiss perspective, Vanessa Knecht has put in an impressive performance on her home comeback after a two-year break. On two under par, she heads into the final round as the top-placed Swiss player and is optimistic about a strong finish. The other Swiss players missed the cut.
