The two Spanish representatives in the Swiss International Championship, Sonia Cólogan from the Canary Islands and Mayte Vizcarrondo from Cadiz, have missed the cut established at the end of the second day of play, so they will not be able to fight for the victory at the Golf Club Basel, where the level shown by the golfers is high.

Both players, who had the possibility of succeeding Barcelona native Diana Terol, the brilliant winner last year in Lausanne, in the tournament's record books, fell short of advancing to the final 36 holes, but were hampered by their discreet start to the championship.

Sonia Cólogan carded a second round of 76 strokes, a score that wasn't enough to advance in the tournament due to her 79 from the previous day. Mayte Vizcarrondo also shot no lower than 79 strokes, which, added to her 81 from the opening round, made it impossible for her to qualify. Germany's Saskia Hausladen, with a total of 143 strokes, is the favorite, although the 36 holes still to be played and the overall high level of play suggest a very close race for the title.

This breaks the extraordinary streak of international results achieved by Spanish women's golf in recent days, with victories by Emma Cabrera in the Biarritz Cup, Ane Urchegui in the Landes Grand Prix and, above all, with the achievement of the European Women's Team Championship in Castelconturbia (Italy).

Finally, Dutch golfer Marjet van der Graaff emerged victorious, finishing five strokes ahead of Germany's Denise-Charlotte Becker and Austria's Stefanie Endstrasser. The German golfers dominated the first two rounds but had to settle for placing four players in the top ten.
