PGA EUROPRO TOUR
GRAHAM GORDON PULLS OUT LATE BIRDIES
TO MAKE THE CUT WITH NOTHING TO SPARE
Former Scottish amateur champion Graham Gordon continued his sequence of making the cut in PGA EuroPro Tour events with two late birdies in a second-round 72 at the Sweeney Environmental Classic at Stonebridge Golf Club.
The Aberdonian's 36-hole total of 139 was right on the limit for qualifying for the final round.
Graham, who is sponsored by two leading Aberdeen businessmen, saddled himself with double bogeys at the second and 11th and looked on his way home when he bogeyed the 12th and 14th as well. But he responded to the pressure by birdieing the 16th and 18th.
Other Scots who will be playing in the final round are sixth placed Jamie McLeary on 134 (67-67) and Paul Doherty 136 (68-68).
Sandeep Grewall from Heswall leads by one stroke at eight-under-par 130 with a 62 and 68.
