Mirabel weathers heat and greens to lead local Maybank challenge

KUALA LUMPUR: Leading Malaysian golfer Mirabel Ting entered Sunday's final round of the Maybank Championship atop the standings despite struggles on the greens on Saturday at the Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club. The 21-year-old, who won two tournaments this season, hit solid iron shots but faltered on the greens, finishing at one-under par 71 after shooting three-under par 69.

She tied for 43rd place with Amanda Doherty, Chisato Iwai, and Hsu Wei Ling, after rounds of 75, 68, and 71 for a three-day total of four-under par 212. Mirabel acknowledged her putting mistakes, saying, "I made too many putting mistakes today, and that was it." Despite the heat on Sunday, she remains focused on improving her iron play and putting for tomorrow's challenge.
