Martina Gillen best of Irish in Ladies event..

Swedens Maria Hjorth and France's Julie Greciet lead the way after the first round of the AIB Ladies Open at Portmarnock Links.They shot -5 rounds of 67.
Unlike the mens Open the ladies enjoyed one of the warmest days of the year.Dubliner Martina Gillen is only two shots behind the leaders on 70-2.They were the only 2 Irish to break par.
The whole talk around Dublin is the 14 year old twins competing against seasoned Professionals.Leona had a 74 early in the day and was on hand to watch Lisa in the afternoon.Lisa looked like beating Leona until she dropped 5 shots and made 2 birdies over the last 7 holes.She signed for a 76+4.They had the biggest gallerys of the day and handled it like seasoned Professionals.Another great performance came from Kilkeel amateur Danielle Mc Veigh 74.
