First point for NSW

Match 8: Annika Rathbone (NSW) defeated Grace Rho (Qld) 4&3

Getting tough for Qld

With NSW leading 6.5-1.5 and all matches now on the back nine, it's going to be hard for Queensland to get back on terms.

Lee looking ominous

Match 5: With all eight matches onto the back nine, NSW's Rachel Lee looks in dominating form. She takes another hole to go 5-up over Shyla Singh as the Blues' women seek to put the first points on the board for their team.

First points look set for NSW

Grace Rho has lipped out her par putt at the 14th to give Annika Rathbone of NSW a 4-up advantage, with the first match on course now dormie and headed to the 15th tee. Meanwhile, in the final match Declan O'Donovan breaks the deadlock and takes a 1-up advantage over Billy Dowling to make Queensland's projected lead 6.5-1.5.

Rathbone fortunate to maintain lead

Match 8: In the first match on course, Annika Rathbone of NSW is lucky to maintain her 3-up lead over Grace Rho. A mis-hit first chip from Rathbone meant she needed to scramble to earn a half at 13 with her Queensland opponent. Five holes left to play but Rho will need to start winning holes if it is to go that far.

Oberle extends his advantage

Match 7: Queensland's Chase Oberle makes a par at the 12th to take the hole and extend his advantage to 3-up over Coby Carruthers, however, it doesn't change the overall sore, with NSW still leading 6-2 with the women doing the heavy lifting.
