Melissa Reid: One-shot advantage

Melissa Reid: One-shot advantage

England's Melissa Reid will carry a one-shot lead into the final round of the Raiffeisenbank Prague Golf Masters as she chases a fourth Ladies European Tour title.

Reid, who is playing her first tournament since her mother, Joy, was killed in a car accident in Germany, shot a second-round 67 to lead the field on nine under par.

The 24-year-old from Derbyshire hit 10 under par after scoring six birdies in her first 12 holes but then dropped a shot on the tricky 17th.

"Obviously with what's gone on I wasn't really expecting much of this week," Reid said on www.ladieseuropeantour.com.

"I worked very hard the last 10 days to get myself in a bit of shape and it's just nice to see that things are working out well.

"I just think I'm not putting any pressure on myself. I'm just going to go out and enjoy playing golf again."

Italy's Stefania Croce is one shot behind Reid after a round of 66, the best of the day, with Germany's Elisabeth Esterl in third on seven under par.
