Overnight leader Rebecca Artis remains two shots clear of the rest of the field after the second round of the Deutsche Bank Ladies Swiss Open in Ticino.
The Australian had carded a career-low round of 64 on Friday and followed that up with a 71 on Saturday, mixing five birdies with four bogeys.
Three players are two shots off the lead, including defending champion Diana Luna.
The Italian sank birdies on the seventh, ninth and 18th, with a bogey on the fourth, to go round in 70 on Saturday and take her overall score to seven under.
Also on seven under are Luna’s compatriot Veronica Zorzi and England’s Florentyna Parker.
Zorzi followed an opening round of 69 with a score of 68, while a double-bogey on the par-fourth ninth restricted Parker to a round of 71.
Stacy Lee Bregman of South Africa, Denmark’s Malene Jorgensen and Frenchwoman Barbara Genuini are tied for fifth on six under, one shot ahead of a group of seven players which includes England’s Hannah Burke and Ireland’s Rebecca Codd.
