Dear moves from Florida to Italy to chase
a place on next season's Alps Tour
FROM THE SCOTSMAN WEBSITE
Gavin Dear will be hoping a month spent honing his game in the United States can help him succeed at this week's Alps Tour qualifying school final in southern Italy.
The rookie pro from Scone near Perth, who racked up a win and four other top 10 finishes on the Florida-based Minor League Golf Tour, leads a group of five Scots into the 54-hole shoot-out which starts today at the Tessali club, Bari.
Dear, who fell at the first hurdle of the European Tour's qualifying school in September, will be joined in Italy this week by Edinburgh's former Scottish amateur champion John Gallagher, who finished third in stage one of the Q-school last week.
Zack Saltman, Steven Hume and Fraserburgh amateur Jordan Findlay make up the Scots contingent in a 144-man field. The top 35 players after three rounds will gain cards for the 2010 Alps Tour.
