A total of six Spanish players, out of the 23 who started the competition, have advanced to the second phase of the Spanish Women's Amateur International Championship held at the Sherry Golf course in Jerez.

Noemí Jiménez, Natalia Escuriola, Clara Baena, Belén Buendía, Mandy Goyos and Luna Sobrón were the golfers from our country who made the cut, set at 32nd place (9 over par in particular) at the end of the second round, a limit that another Spanish woman, Carmen Laguna, did not reach at the last minute.

The high number of foreign players highlights the high level of quality of the participants in this edition of the Cops SM La Reina 2011. Among them all, special mention goes to the French player Inés Lescudier and the German player Vicki Troeltsch, tied at the top of the standings in this first phase, the only two capable of breaking par.

Among the Spanish players, the most outstanding in this first phase was Noemí Jiménez from Malaga, who finished fifth, which in theory allows her to face the title playoffs from a better position.

Also noteworthy was the performance of Natalia Escuriola from Castellón, who also managed to place herself within the Top 10 of the stroke play phase just before the start of the decisive duels in pursuit of victory.

In relation to the Nations Cup –results accumulated during the first two days–, the honorary victory has gone to the French team B, made up of Emilie Alonso, Inés Lescuider and Lèa Charpier, with 288 strokes.
