Raymond Russell ties for fourth on Alps Tour in France

FROM THE ALPS TOUR WEBSITE
Juan Antonio Bragulat claimed his second title of the season this weekend. After Frenchman Alan Bihan and Italian Matteo Delpodio, Spaniard Bragulat is the third player this year to win twice. His margin this morning was only one stroke but his closest challengers could not score better than level. He played 68 to win the Open de la Mirabelle d'Or 4 clear at Metz, France.
Scot Raymond Russell finished his round square with a par 72  at the Mirabelle d'Or golf course to tie 4th place on 272 . Young French Amateur Clément Sordet signed for a disappointing 74 and finished 7th tie.
At second place tie, 4 strokes behind the lead, Englishman Sam Robinson and Frenchman Laurent Poncelet. Poncelet did sign the best score of the day, 64. The 32 year old player has been playing as professional for only 9 months. He used to have “normal job” in logistic and golf event. Last year, he decided to change his life with his family, friends and wife support. This first great result is a great gift for Laurent “Lolo” Poncelet.
Raymond Russell earned 2,525 Euros while fellow Scot Gavin Dear earned 1,088 Euros for a share of 13th place on 275 following a closing score of 69.
