Leona Maguire finished on two under par to make the cut at The Annika, while Lauren Walsh missed out on the weekend after falling back to even par, RTÉ reported.
Maguire carded a round of 73, which was eight higher than her opening effort at the tournament. She found herself five over par through her opening six holes, a stretch that included a triple bogey seven on the second hole.
The Irish golfer played the remainder of her round at two under par, picking up birdies on the seventh, 14th, 16th, and 18th holes. She mixed those scoring gains with dropped shots on the eighth and 10th holes, doing just enough to squeeze inside the cut line in a tie for 50th place.
At the top of the leaderboard, the trio of Carlota Ciganda, Hye-Jin Choi, and Lindy Duncan share the lead on 12 under par.
Lauren Walsh also signed for a round of 73, missing the weekend action as she slipped back to even par overall. Starting her day on the 10th hole, she dropped shots immediately with three bogeys on her outward nine. Another dropped shot on the third hole—her 12th of the day—left the 26-year-old trailing.
She managed her first birdie of the day on the seventh hole, but failed to find the additional scoring conversion needed to secure a place in the weekend rounds.
