Aberdonian rookie has four shots to spare in Moscow

RICHIE RAMSAY MAKES FIRST
CUT IN PROFESSIONAL EVENT

Rookie Richie Ramsay made his first cut in a professional event when he had a par 72 in the delayed finish to the second round this morning in the European Tour's Russian Open at Le Meridien Moscow G&CC.
The Aberdonian, playing in his first event since he turned professional late last week, qualified with ease on 142 - three shots inside the limit mark.
Sweden's Per-Ulrik Johansson had an incredible second round of 62 to be on 13-under-par 131 after 36 holes.
