SANDY DISQUALIFIES HIMSELF FOR WRONG
SCORE IN BRITISH MASTERS

Sandy Lyle disqualified himself from the Quinn Direct British Masters at The Belfry today.
Before teeing off again in the second round, Lyle went to tournament officials and told them he had signed for a wrong score on the opening day.
The 49-year-old former Open and US Masters champion had signed for a four-under-par 68, good enough for a share of 10th place, but then realised overnight it was one shot more.
His marker had put him down for a par 4 on the 11th hole when, in fact, Lyle had bogeyed it.
Lyle, who has not finished in Europe's top 100 since 2002, stands 198th on the Order of Merit this season.
