Alps Tour Final Qualifying School:

Scots prosper on first day at Bari

By AGATHE SERON
The first round of the Alps Tour Final Qualifying School took place under sunshine at Bari in southern Italy.
The field of 144 players are chasing 35 spots on the 2010 circuit, split into two groups, one at Riva de Tessali, the other at Metaponto golf course.
As last week, the scores were really better at Metaponto whose fairways are wider. A group of three men are leading on seven-under-par 65 -Italian amateur Giorgio Del Boca, Scottish rookie pro Gavin Dear and South of England amateur champion Jason Palmer.
One stroke behind come Jann Schmid from Switzerland and another Englishman, Mark Davies. Gavin Dear apart, the Scots in general are doing well.
