Lalla Aicha Tour School Pre Qualifiers have concluded. Race to LET 2014 continues in Marrakech

Karoline Lampert

All three events which make up the Lalla Aicha Tour School Pre-Qualifying have finished today after four rounds in very good weather conditions.

The two events, Pre- Qualifier B and C, have taken place at Royal Golf Dar Es Salam from 5^th to 8^th December. A total of 90 players from over 15 different countries played on the championship Red and Blue courses, with all sharing the same goal: to finish within the top 23 and top 15, respectively from groups B and C. 

Germany´s Karoline Lampert won the Pre- Qualifier B with total of 291 (-1) followed by Amy Boulden from Wales and France’s Ariane Provot (298).

“I did not start very well today but then my putter worked really good and I made couple of birdies which made me feel good”, Lampert commented.

When asked about the whole event, Lampert said: “The last days were solid, my first round +5, was not bad, just OK, but then the second round, four under, was obviously fantastic and that helped a lot for my self confidence. I hope I am ready for the next step. The golf course was very tough and long and you needed to be patient to make some birdies. The conditions of the course were really good, the greens, the fairways… everything…It is a very good course and I like it very much.”

A total of 24 players have qualified from Pre- Qualifier B to Final Qualifying:
