Ben Enoch leads by two at

halfway in Duncan Putter

Ben Enoch takes a two-shot lead into the final day of the Duncan Putter 72-hole open amateur tournament at Southerndown Golf Club's links in South Wales.

Two sub-par rounds of 65 and 69 put the Cornish golfer, pictured right in action today by courtesy of Tom Ward Photography, in strong contention for the title. But there is a powerful pack of talented golfers close on his heels, waiting for a slip!
Pressure to make the cut was quite intense, with nine players tying on 147 or 148 - the cut finally coming at 147.

Nothing was more dramatic than 17-year-old Rhodri Fieldhouse's 60ft birdie putt on the 18th that narrowly secured his place in the field for Sunday's final two rounds.
