LA MANGA CLUB INTERNATIONAL PRO-AM
DUTCHMAN STEENKAMER IS JOOST
IN FRONT WITH A ROUND TO GO
NEWS RELEASE
Dutch professional Joost Steenkamer battled through tough conditions at the La Manga Club's West Course in Spain today, carding a one-over par 73 for a one-under-par total of 144 - one ahead of the chasers.
Steenkamer's round was once again up and down with four bogeys and two birdies on the front nine, but he managed his back nine much better with only one bogey and two birdies.
Hot on the Dutchman's heels is Spain's Carlos Rodiles whose advance on the tournament was solid throughout his second round until the 17th hole when a double bogey 7 halted the charge.
An instant birdie response on the 18th hole helped to ease the pain of 17, leaving Rodiles on even-par 145 for the tournament.
Round 1 leader Mikael Lundberg (Sweden) wasn't able to emulate his first round at the South Course with a string of bogeys in both nines for a second round of ten-over par.
But Saturday's round ensured he didn't end up too far off of the pace, sitting at two-over par for the tournament.
In the Team pro-am event, PGA of Spain professional James Ferraby, and his team of Pavel Shestopalov, Vitaly Samsonov, and Alfonso Grijalva, lead after a consistent 11-under 83pt total, matched with their first round of 84pt, leaving them one ahead with 167pt.
Lundberg's individual score for the day was not as hot as round two's, but his team score was enough to hold second place at 166pt, followed by Brendan McGovern's team on 163pt.
