MAYFAIR, MARTIN TIED FOR US TOUR SCHOOL LEAD

FROM THE US PGA T0UR WEBSITE
ORLANDO, FLORIDA (AP) -- Billy Mayfair and Ben Martin are tied for the lead after five rounds at the US PGA Tour Final Qualifying School, one round away from earning their playing cards for next year.
Mayfair shot a 67 and Martin had a 71 on the Panther Lake Course at Orange County National. Both are 16 under through 90 holes of the tournament, one shot ahead of Bio Him.
The top 25 will earn US PGA Tour cards for 2011 after Monday's last round. The next 50 will get cards on the Nationwide Tour. The difference between Mayfair and Martin and the final spot is seven shots at the moment.
Mayfair has posted all five rounds in the 60s. Martin's 71 is his only round in the 70s.
Briny Baird, who lost his card for next year after finishing No. 127 on the money list, shot a 71. He is five shots off the cut-off.
Greg Owen, an unsung Englishman on the US Tour in recent years, is making a great bid to overcome the millstone of an opening round of 76. Since then he has shot 69, 70, 71 and 68. His fifth-round score lifted him up from joint 80th to joint 52nd place. Another 68 in the last round might just do the trick for Owen.
Lee Janzen is languishing in joint 107th place on 359.
