DARLING & GOADBY BOTH OUT OF WOMEN'S AMATEUR

English duo Emily Toy and Annabell Fuller produced incredible finishes to reach the semi-finals at The Women’s Amateur Championship.


The Women's Amateur Championship:

Defending champion Emily Toy and former Curtis Cup player Annabell Fuller joined Germany's Aline Krauter and Italy’s Emile Alba Paltrinieri in the last-four.

Toy, who only qualified on the cut mark from the stroke play qualifying, built on her impressive victories on Thursday with two nail-biting successes.

In the morning, Toy dug deep to level her last-16 tie with Scotland's Chloe Goadby at the 18th, after Goadby found the water off the tee. The pair then halved the 19th with birdies, before Toy delivered another to win at the 20th.

More drama followed in the afternoon with Toy winning at the 19th after being four-down to Lithuania’s Gilė Bitė Starkutė.

Italy's Aline Krauter knocked out Scotland's Hannah Darling in the last 16, before winning against her fellow German Paula Schulz-Hanssen to claim her place in the semi's.

England's Annabell Fuller, who won the English Women’s Open Amateur Stroke Play Championship last week, won against Italy's Alessia Nobilio, who was the the highest-ranked player in the field. with a WAGR ranking of 5.

Italy’s Emile Alba Paltrinieri, the world number 27, continued her fine form with comfortable wins over England's Sharna Dutrieux and Caitlin Whitehead.
