RED SEA AIN SOKHNA CLASSIC

 LATE BIRDIES LIFT LAW INTO JOINT 

13th PLACE IN EGYPT: 18 HOLES TO GO

Two late birdies - at the 16th and 17th - kept alive
David Law's hopes of a top five finish in the Red Sea Ain Sokhna Classic in Egypt this week.
The Aberdonian has had scores of 72-70 for two-under-142 and is lying joint 13th with one round to go on this German PGA developmental tour event.
Law, who had five birdies in all, having earlier birdied the second, seventh and 11th, is nine strokes behind the leader by two, England's Max Orrin (65-68 for 11-under 133).
Law's Paul Lawrie Golf Centre stablemate from Fraserburgh, Jordan Findlay, has had a pair of 72s for a share of 23rd place on 144. Highlight of his second-round card was an eagle 3 at th3 long 17th. He had one birdie, at the third.
Peterhead's Philip McLean, also playing out of PLGC, made the cut with nothing to spare after rounds of 75 and 72 for 147. His third birdie of the day, at the 17th after a bogey at the 16th, was crucial but he had an anxious wait on the qualification borderline after bogeying the 18th.
