GAVIN DEAR MAKING HIS MARK IN
FLORIDA AS HE FINDS FEET AS A PRO
By COLIN FARQUHARSON
Rookie professional Gavin Dear from Scone has already won $2,026 on the Minor League Golf Tour in Florida.
He finished joint fourth in his latest one-day event, the November 5 Classic at Fountains Country Club, Lake Worth, earning $450. Dear has had five top-10 finishes in his six outings, in all of which he has earned money.
His best performance so far was to win the one-round Hillcrest Classic which earned him $725. The 25-year-old Scot, who failed to get past Stage 1 of this year's European Tour Qualifying School, is already 90th on the Minor League Golf Tour money table.
Almost all of the Minor League Golf Tour competitions are one-round affairs, much like the Alliance circuits in Scotland, with the difference that several are played a week.
This week's event breaks the pattern. It's an extended match-play competition.
