No stopping Shanshan Feng as she chases Dubai hat-trick

Thursday, 10 December 2015 18:23

Shanshan Feng remains on course to win the 2015 Omega Dubai Ladies Masters title after taking the lead at the halfway stage. The defending champion shot another blemish free round of 67 to move two shots clear of second-placed Laura Davies on 10 under par. But the World No6 is refusing to get carried away as she chases an unprecedented third Dubai title.

Meanwhile, Davies admits she’ll have to overcome more than just Shanshan Feng if she is to finally end her title drought. The four-time Major winner has not won on tour since 2010 and she says the prospect of ending that five-year hiatus will test her temperament.
