Ireland's Laura Webb made the most of her experience to progress to the match play stage of the Women’s Amateur Championship.
The 57-year-old, who is a two-time Senior Women’s Amateur champion, carded a three-over-par 75 at West Lancashire Golf Club to secure one of the 64 places in the knockout stages.
Beth Coulter, Paula Grant and Jessica Ross also advanced to enhance Irish interest in the event.
The English trio of Emily Price, Rosie Belsham and Isabelle Simpson led the qualifiers on one under par alongside Italy’s Carolina Melgrati and Denmark’s Amalie Leth-Nissen.
Defending champion Emily Toy carded a triple-bogey eight on the second hole but survived on countback after finishing on six over par.
