Michael Sim looks to be only Scot with
chance of making US Final Q School

Aberdeen-born Michael Sim looks like being the only Scot to survive Stage 2 of the US PGA Tour Qualifying School process.
Sim, who emigrated with his parents to Perth, Western Australia in the early 1990s, is lying joint 16th after three rounds of the 72-hole eliminator at Deerwood Golf Club in Texas. Only the top 21 after Saturday's fourth round will advance to the Final Qualifying School from December 3 to 8.
Sim's rounds so far are 71, 68 and 71 for a six-under-par total of 210.
In the Stage 2 event at Panama City Beach, Florida, David Kirkpatrick from Edinburgh and Russell Knox need to produce something special in the final round if they are to be among the 20 who will qualify from this venue.
Kirkpatrick has scored 71, 76 and 69 to be joint 48th on 216. Knox has had rounds of 76, 75 and 74 to be joint 74th on 225.
