FIFER SLUMPS FROM FIRST-ROUND 68 TO SECOND-ROUND 78

JAMES WHITE AMONG SCOTS WHO

MISS ALPS TOUR CUT IN ITALY

Four of the five Scots in the field failed to beat the second-round cut in the Alps Tour 54-hole event at Colli Berici Golf Club, northern Italy today.
Biggest surprise was the elimination of Fifer James White who was within striking distance of the first-round lead with an opening 68.
But he had a disastrous second-round 78, which included three double bogeys, and missed the cut by one stroke.
Ross Kellett from Motherwell also had a 146 aggregate, made up of rounds of 74 and 72.
Other Scots on the wrong side of the cut (145 and better qualified) were John Gallagher on 149 (73-76) and Michael Stewart on 150 (79-71)
The only Scot in the final round draw is John Henry from Clydebank and District. He had a second-round 70 for 143 and is joint 23rd, eight shots behind the Norwegian leader Stian Hansen (69-66 for 135).
