FORTY-TWO SCOTS SET OFF ON THE YELLOW BRICK ROAD

TARTAN ARMY CROSS BORDER FOR

PGA EUROPRO TOUR Q SCHOOL STAGE 1

A total of 42 Scots are spread over the four English venues for the PGA EuroPro Tour's Qualifying School Stage 1 on Wednesday and Thursday this week.
The exact numbers who will go forward from the 36-hole eliminating competitions at De Vere Slaley Hall, Formby Hall, Players Club and Woldingham to the 54-hole Final Stage at Frilford Heath GC, Oxfordshire from April 2 to 4 will not be decided until the Stage 1 events are under way.
Players have to pay a £250 PGA joining fee as well as a £175 fee to enter the Q Q-School.
On top of that, the entry fee for each PGA EuroPro Tour event is £250 - so it is a nice
little earner for the PGA.
Each 54-hole tournament on the PGA EuroPro Tour has a £10,000 first prize. The first five in its end-of-the-season Order of Merit table gains automatic promotion to the European Challenge Tour.
The Scots who have entered Stage 1 are:
DE VERE SLALEY HALL - Paul Allan, Jordan McColl, Stuart Coia, Sam Kiloh, Graeme Brown, Jonathan Mullaney, Neil Henderson, John Henry, Ian Redford, Ross Kellett, Mark Hillson, James Hendrick, Craig Lawrie, Scott Crichton, Eric Ramsay, Norman Huguet, Paul Cormack, Graham Rankin, Michael Patterson, Conor O'Neil, Sam Binning, Eric Walker, Iain Robertson, Scott Herald, Fraser McKenna, Calum Smith, Sam McNeil, Myles Cunningham, John Dick, Kris Nicol.
FORMBY HALL - Paul Robinson, Andrew Borg, Ross Bell, Paul McGhee, Jonathan Pollock, Graham Forbes.
