STEADY FIFER JUMPS UP FROM JT 33RD OVERNIGHT

JAMES WHITE MOVES INTO TOP

TEN AT REBETZ OPEN IN FRANCE

Fifer James White moved up from joint 33rd overnight to a share of eighth place in the Alps Tour's Rebetz International Open golf tournament at Golf de Rebetz, France today.
White has had very steady rounds of 71 and 70 for three-under-par 141 - five shots behind the leading Englishman Matt Wallace (67-69 for 136).
White had five birdies but three boys in his second round.
Other Scots to beat the cut at 144 and better were Ross Kellett who has put together scores of 72 and 71 for 143 and a share of 25th place. He had five birdies in halves of 37-34 in his second round.
Edinburgh's John Gallagher made it with nothing to spare on the 144 mark after rounds of 73-73 for a share of 36th place.
But Ayrshire's Michael Stewart missed out by two with 74-72 for 146 while John Henry repeated his nightmare 81 for a sad total of 162 and joint 136th place.
