ELLIOT SALTMAN SHARES LEAD IN EUROPRO
TOUR EVENT AT WHITTLEBURY PARK


Rookie pro Elliot Saltman from Dalkeith is sharing the lead after 36 holes of the latest PGA EuroPro Tour event at Whittlebury Park Golf & Country Club in Northamptonshire.
Saltman had a superb second-round 65 for five-under-par 137 to join Welshman David Price in the lead.
Adam Lee (St Mellons, Cardiff) crashed out of the tournament despite hitting a hole-in-one on the 163-yard par-three 14th. A poor score of a six-over 77 on Wednesday left him with too much to do on the second day as he finished well down the field.
Apart from Saltman, the only other Scots to make it through to the final day were Neil Mitchell (Murcar Liks) on 143 and Lee Harper (Archerfield Links) on 145, the limit mark.
Jack and Paul Doherty, Graham Gordon, Thomas Higson and Christopher Campbell all missed the cut.
