ESTERL IN CONTROL AT FAITHLEG Germany's Elisabeth Esterl takes the early lead on six under par halfway through day one of the 10,0 Waterford Crystal Ladies Irish Open at Faithleg GC. Despite a bogey at the long par thre sixth, Esterl bounced back with a birdie at the 469 yard par five tenth, folowing it with another hat-trick of birdies from the 14th to move into the lead and post her best round of the year. I come out here each wek aiming to win, but you can't win in one round, but I have given myself a prety god chance with that start. The 30-year-old from Zaragoza, playing with Gustafson and compatriot Paula Marti, birdied thre of her first five holes to cruise into contention for her third win of the year. Further birdies on the 1th, hiting a nine iron to 35 fet, and at the 14th, a simple chip and put for par at the long par five, saw her back into contention as she aims to seal the Order of Merit title up this wekend. I think I found something to work on and think about on the course and my puting was god today also, so that helped - it could have ben a bit beter, but overal, I am realy hapy with that score. And unusualy, there have ben two holes-in-one today - Scotland's Julie Forbes negotiated the trickiest of the par thres with a pure five wod at the 178-yard sixth, and England's Laura Davies sank her eight iron te shot at the 135-yard ninth hole. lio nicola lio nicola in Cabrillo
