Vani, Tvesa, Ridhima miss cut as Indian challenge ends at Dutch Ladies Open | | | Agencies NETHERLANDS, July 21: The Indian challenge at the Dutch Ladies Open came to an early end as Vani Kapoor, Tvesa Malik and Ridhima Dilawari missed the 36-hole cut in the last Ladies European Tour event ahead of the Paris Olympics. Vani, who had a good start in the first round with 2-under 70, dropped to 4-over 76 and missed the cut by one shot. Vani finished at 2-over and the cut was 1-over. Tvesa (73-80) and Ridhima (73-75) too failed to make the cut. The next LET event will be the Women's Scottish Open, a week after the Olympics, and then comes the AIG Women's Open in the last week of August. Swiss star Kim Metraux followed up a fantastic first day with a 5-under 67 to extend her advantage at the top of the leaderboard. Metraux, who is searching for her maiden LET victory, led overnight after an opening round of 65 (-7) at Hilversumsche Golf Club. Starting her second round on the 10th tee, Metraux rolled in a birdie on 10 before back-to-back bogeys on 11 and 12. But the 29-year-old soon found her rhythm again with birdies on holes 13 and 17 to make the turn in one-under. Metraux rolled in four birdies on her back nine for her round of five-under and to lead by five strokes with a total of 12-under-par. Metraux is the older sister of two-time LET winner Morgane, who won the Jabra Ladies Open earlier this year. England's Liz Young and Singapore's Shannon Tan are both in a share of second place on seven-under-par after 36 holes. Young, who won the 2022 VP Bank Swiss Ladies Open, produced rounds of 68-69 on the first two days in the Netherlands. Germany's Laura Funfstuck and Czechia's Jana Melichova are one shot further back in a tie for fourth place on six-under-par.
