Manawatu-Wanganui and their local No 1 player Tara Raj have continued their unbeaten march in the New Zealand Women's Interprovincials at Napier's Maraenui Golf Club.
Having beaten Wellington 5-0 and Hawkes Bay-Poverty Bay 4-1 on Tuesday, they continued their winning ways yesterday with victories over Aorangi 4-1 and Taranaki 5-0.
The shutouts continued this morning with a 5-0 win over Otago, which was followed by a bye this afternoon.
Raj defeated Taranaki's Tineka Kumeroa 1up in a closely fought contest, and then Otago's Sumin Kang 4/3.
After Round 5, Manawatu-Wanganui were sitting on top of Division One on five points and 23 games, setting up a top of the table clash with three-time defending champions Auckland, who were on four points and 19.5 games.
