McLEARY, WHITEFORD, RUSSELL IN WEEKEND
HUNT FOR STOCKHOLM PRIZE

By MICHAEL GIBBONS
Press Officer, European Challenge Tour

Jamie McLeary from Kinross and Fifer Peter Whiteford joined Raymond Russell in the weekend hunt for the Challenge Tour’s Teila Challenge Waxholm in Stockholm today.
The Scottish trio will have to produce a low scoring weekend at the Waxholm Golf Club to take the title, but they can take heart from their performances over the first two rounds.
While Russell was the lowest scoring Scot on three under par after day one, Whiteford produced the best second round performance of the three, a fine five under par 68 moving the Scot to three under for the tournament and level with Russell, who carded a level par 73.
McLeary is the closest of the Scots to leader Jamie Donaldson of Wales after a second round 70 took him to five under – five off the ten under lead held by Donaldson.
