Chris Robb's T5 finish in Austria

Chris Robb (Meldrum House) finished joint fifth in the German PGA Developmental Tour's St Polton Open in Austria.

The Banchory-based man had rounds of 68, 68 and 67 for a 12-under-par total of 203. four shots behind the winner, Dutchman Reinier Saxton who had scores of 65, 65 and 69 for 14 under par 199.

Ironically Robb had fewer birdies (six) than he had in his first and second rounds (nine, then seven) but had his lowest score of the three days.

Reason was that he had only one bogey in his final round compared with a profusion of bogeys over the first 36 holes.
