comfortable 10-stroke lead in the girls division going into today's final round of the Glidden Bowl at Belmont Golf Club.

But the two older boys groups could produce closer finishes, with Nick Dunkle leading the 15 and over division by two strokes over Chris Smith, while Jarryd Dillas is five shots ahead of Thomas Edwards in the 13-14 group.

The tournament kicked off on Tuesday in ideal conditions with 16-year-old Belmont club champion Nick Dunkle leading allcomers with an excellent even-par round of 70 with two birdies.

Yesterday in rainy and blustery conditions, Dunkle carded a second round 76, a score matched by Smith, whom he led by two strokes after the first day. Third overall is Stephen Roy who, alongwith Anthony Smith, had the best round in that age group of 75. Roy is still in contention, just four shots behind the leader.

In the 13-14 age group, Thomas Edwards carded the round of theday on Tuesday with his two-over-par 72 which included four birdies. Jarryd Dillas was then four back on 76.

However, the lead has now changed after Edwards could only manage an 84 in yesterday's tough conditions while Dillas shot a 75 to move into a five-stroke lead. Camiko Smith is a distant third on 165, 14 off the leader after adding an 86 to his first day 79.

Robinson looks set to land another title after two steady rounds of 82 in her division where she leads Stephanie Lewis by 10 strokes. Lewis had two rounds of 87. A further stroke back is Ebonie Burgess on 175, after improving her first round by 17 strokes with a 79 which is the best so far amongst the girls.

Tyler Marshall is the overwhelming leader in the 11-12 division after rounds of 80 and 76 put him a whopping 21 strokes ahead of Andrew Osborne who had rounds of 92 and 85.
