NICOL AND STEWART TOP 20 FINISHES IN ALPS TOUR EVENT

Kris Nicol and Michael Stewart both finished in the top 20 in the Alps Tour's Fiuli Venezia Giulia Open at Grado Golf Club, near Venice in Italy today (Saturday).

Fraserburgh's Nicol, pictured, playing out of the Paul Lawrie Golf Centre, shot rounds of 70, 72 and 67 for a seven-under-par total of 209 which earned him 797 Euros and a share of 12th place.
Former Walker Cup player Stewart from Troon earned 649 Euros which could have been a couple of hundred Euros more had he not bogeyed the 17th and 18th in his final round of 69. His earlier scores were 68 and 73.
He finished joint 16th on 210 - nine shots behind the winner of the 5,800 Euros first prize, Englishman Jason Palmer from Kirby Muxloe Golf Club.
Palmer had scores of 70, 65 and 66 for 15-under-201, winning by two shots from compatriot Ben Evans, Lukas Nemecz (Austria) and overnight leader Rafael Marguery (France), each of whom earned 2,873 Euros.
The third Scot in the field, Ross Cameron from Ellon, missed the 36-hole cut.
