Princess Superal shot a two-under 70 and tied local ace Tiffany Chan on top at the start of the Hong Kong Ladies Amateur Open at HK Golf Club-Fanling Wednesday.
Three birdies at the back negated a missed green bogey on No. 14 and put Superal in step with the reigning World University Games gold medalist in the 54-hole event.
“I missed a couple of birdie putts at the front but made some good reads at the back,” said Superal.
Pauline del Rosario missed joining her The Country Club teammate and Chan in the lead with a three-putt miscue on No. 17 as the reigning Thailand Ladies Amateur and Singha Thailand Junior World champion settled for a 71.
Sam Martirez, winner of the Kids World Malaysia crown last month, fumbled with a 76 in the tournament which stakes a spot in the HK Ladies Open, a pro event, this June.
“I expect Pau to rebound in the next two rounds,” said TCC coach Nestor Mendoza.
