Gavin Dear now 12th in worldamateur rankings - best yet
Murrayshall's Gavin Dear has risen to 12th - his highest yet - in this week's R&A World Amateur Golf Rankings. The 24-year-old Scone man was 13th last week. His target is to make the top 10 in time to avoid Stage 1 of the European Tour Qualifying School.
The only other Scots in the world's top 100 amateurs are Ross Kellett (Colville Park and James Byrne (Banchory). Kellett has gone up two places to 87th and Byrne, ironically on the day after he went out in the first round of the Allied Surveyors Scottish amateur championship at Royal Troon, soared 16 places to 89th.
Wllace Booth (Comrie) is the fourth highest Scot in 112th ranking, a drop of three places.
The world's No 1 is Nick Taylor (Canada) ahead of Morgan Hoffman (USA) and Matt Hill (Canada).
The only British player ahead of Gavin Dear is Englishman Sam Hutsby (Lipook) in fifth place.
