30 May 2013 – South Africa’s Lee-Anne Pace fired an opening 69 at the Golfpark Gut Häusern near Munich to finish within striking distance of the pacesetters topping a crowded first round leaderboard at the UniCredit Ladies German Open, presented by Audi, on Thursday.

Chasing her second victory this season after winning the Turkish Airlines Ladies Open earlier this month, Pace collected two birdies a piece on each nine, off by a lone bogey at the par-five 11th for a three under 69 and a share of 10th alongside Australian Rebecca Artis, Sweden’s Linda Wessberg and Marjet van der Graaff from the Netherlands.

Although Pace broke through for her sixth LET title in Turkey earlier this month, the Mossel Bay professional couldn’t carry that winning form into the Deloitte Ladies Open in Amsterdam last week and she finished in a tie for 35th.

Simon, meanwhile, re-joined the circuit after a four-month recovery from hip surgery in January and played her first competitive golf at the SA Women’s Open in May.

The two-time LET winner finished second in the event that was reduced to 18 holes, but Simon struggled to come to terms with the windy and trying conditions at The International and slumped to a tie for 45th after a promising start.

27 May 2013 - Lee-Anne Pace and Tandi Cuningham led the South African onslaught at The International in Amsterdam, but the duo finished well off the pace from rookie winner Holly Clyburn in the unseasonably cold weather and windy conditions that plagued the field campaigning in the Deloitte Ladies Open in Holland.

Pace came into the event carrying the winning form of her sixth LET title in Morocco two weeks ago, but the former LET Order of Merit winner carded rounds of 74-75-75 for a five-over-par 223 total and a share of 35^th alongside compatriot Tandi Cuningham, who returned rounds of 71-76-77.
