An excellent 67 (-5) this Saturday in Saudi Arabia allowed Céline Herbin to climb back to 4th position 3 strokes behind the leaders, the Welsh Lydia Hall and the Danish Emily Kristine Pedersen share the lead at -10 after laps of 69 (-3) and 71 (-1) respectively.

As always, the sympathetic Welsh star determined in his performance, is considering the prospect of bringing home the biggest check of his career if he wins tomorrow.

I'm pretty happy with the result and can't wait to play with the same band again tomorrow - it's going to be fun.

The other leader of the day, Emily Kristine Pedersen, may not have had her best day on the course at Royal Greens Golf & Country Club, but the current fit player struggled making a 71 ( -1) to hold on with a chance of securing his second win of the season.

“I'm really happy to be still in the lead after three laps, I was all over the place, I hit some really horrible tee shots and it's hard to score when you're not in the fairway. I continued with 16 greens in regulation, but they just aren't close enough.

Georgia Hall, is looking to unlock her meter this weekend and would love to come home with her debut LET title, the same week as The Masters.

Named after the state of Georgia because she was born on the traditional tournament date of April, and the reason her father loved the Masters so much, Hall came close to joining the leaders.

“I was very stable today. I thought I could have done maybe one or two more putts towards the end, but my long play was really good. It was great playing with Lydia and Emily, I know them both very well. Emily and I are good friends and it was just fun. I can not wait for tomorrow.

Taking giant strides to capture the coveted "Rookie of the Year", Australian Stephanie Kyriacou equalized the low lap of the day with a 68 (-4) to climb to 7th position while her close rival Alice Hewson hesitated at a 74 (+2).
