Carlota Ciganda, for another ‘top 10’ in a big

Carlota Ciganda, the golfer of optimism, will head into the last day of the Chevron Championship, the first women’s championship of the year, from thirteenth position, five shots behind the tournament lead that is held in The Woodland (Texas).

And it is something so notorious, in a difficult year for the Spanish playerafter having changed clubs and regained confidence in her game, which places the Navarrese golfer in the orbit of achieving something important in a tournament that this year changed venues, after having been played for 51 years at Rancho Mirage (Palm Spring, Calif.).

In a Major in which she has been fourth twice (2015 and 2019), Ciganda threw 69 punches in the third round on a round built from the start. With four birdies in the first 9 holes. In defense mode from 10.

“I think it was a good lap. In the second nine holes, the flags were complicated. It was windy and the lap of -3 is good”, said the Navarrese. “The pairs are good in this field. If I hit 10-under or 11-under tomorrow, I may be fighting,” she opened up.

Above, the lead, with a five stroke advantage over Carlotabelongs to the American Allisen Corpuz, the 25-year-old golfer who, at the age of 10, in 2008, qualified for the Public Links of the United States, a flashy tournament in the amateur field.
