Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions: Céline Boutier still in the area
French n ° 1 Céline Boutier points to 4e place 4 strokes behind the leader, Inbee Park, after the third round of the Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions, in Florida. After making a hole-in-one on a par 3 the day before, this time she had an eagle on a par 4.
“I think on some weeks you are luckier than usual. It is precisely one of those weeks ”, smiled Céline Boutier, after 3e tour, Saturday. Twenty-four hours after having “limped” 160 meters on a par 3 for the second hole in one of his career, the native of Clamart this time “dunked” an eagle, thanks to a wedge hit of 80 meters, on par 4 of 16. " And even, she added cheekily, I could have put a third one this week. On the first hole of the tournament, I hit the flag and the ball came out of the hole. "

By returning a card of 69 yesterday, Céline Boutier remains at 4e place (-9) of the Diamond Resort Tournament of Champions, which brings together in Florida all the winners of the last two seasons on the LPGA. Before the last lap today, South Korean Inbee Park leads the way at -13. “I made no mistakes on Saturday and my hitting quality was perfect, rejoiced the seven-time Grand Slam winner. Too bad my putting did not follow, especially with this three a little disappointing putts at 18. "
