Turner has Irish eyes on Galgorm prize

Ireland’s Niall Turner shares the lead heading into the final round of the Northern Ireland Open in Association with Sphere Global and Ulster Bank after a three under par third round 68 at Galgorm Castle moved him to the summit alongside second round leader Emilio Cuartero Blanco.
Turner birdied the 18th to set the clubhouse target at 14 under par while his Spanish counterpart could only make par to remain on the same score, with Jamie McLeary and Clément Sordet two shots further back in joint third place.
The 32 year old suffered a bad back injury in January that disrupted most of his season thus far but credited the support of the local crowds with spurring him on this week.
“It’s fantastic playing in front of an Irish crowd,” he said. “This event is so well supported, and I had some close friends and family up here today.
“It’s great to hear the roar from the crowds, like on the last hole when I made a long birdie putt, and it’s fantastic to know that you’ve got the home crowd behind you.
“It was actually a bit of an up and down round. I got it going really well in the middle of the round but missed a lot of short putts coming in.
“I was happy with my final two holes though, saving par on 17 and then a lovely birdie on the last. All in all I’m delighted with a 68.
“It’s exciting to be in the final group in the final round. I’ve always enjoyed playing in front of crowds so I’m looking forward to it.
“I’ll treat it like any other round and go through the usual pre-round routine. It’s hard to do but you have to stay true to what you’ve been doing and trust in your game. I’m really excited about it.”
Cuartero Blanco admitted nerves got the better of him as he made a double bogey on the first hole, but he made five birdies and an eagle to fire a 69 and remain in a share for the lead.
“I started very badly, just some bad swings,” said the 24 year old. “I was a bit nervous today because I haven’t held the lead in a tournament since I was an amateur, but now I’m so excited.
“My round was a bit messy but the eagle on the ninth helped. I putted well and made a lot of birdies, and I was happy to be able to come back after a bad start and to be able to hold a lead.
“I’m looking forward to seeing how I perform under final round pressure. The people just want to see good shots, so I think they enjoyed me today because I made a lot of birdies, as well as quite a few bogeys, but it was good fun.
“I couldn’t be happier with the crowd that followed me. There was a family from San Sebastián and they were cheering ‘vamos, vamos’ which was nice to hear. But everyone claps and cheers everything, it’s great to have this support out here and I’m excited for even more people.”
Frenchman Sordet, in just his fourth event since turning professional, almost made a hole in one on the par three fifth as he shot a 68 to move to 12 under par.
McLeary started with a sublime approach to the first and three other birdies on the front nine moved him into contention before a bogey coming home meant he remains two shots back.
His fellow Scot Peter Whiteford fired the best round of the day, a six under par 65, and sits on 11 under par alongside Denmark’s Jeff Winther and American John Hahn.
A clutch of players remain well within striking range at 10 under par, including Road to Oman Rankings leader Ricardo Gouveia and 2013 Northern Ireland Open champion Daan Huizing.
The home hopeful Chris Selfridge, having this week made his eighth successive cut since turning professional, fired a level par round of 71 to remain on eight under par.

40 players on 146 and better qualify for Sunday's final 36 holes

 Stage set for cracking finish to Leven Gold Medal ... two strokes span leading five

1By COLIN FARQUHARSON 
Scotland's elite squad of amateurs missed this weekend's Leven Gold Medal to play in Slovakia - but nobody is missing them at the oldest amateur stroke-play golf tournament in the world.
The stage is set for a cracking final 36 holes on Sunday at the Fife links venue with three players sharing the lead on six-under-par 136
Graeme Robertson (Glenbervie) had has rouns of 67 and 69, Bryan Fotheringham (Inverness) 70 and 66, and certainly not last but least, former Scottish amateur champion and reinstated amateur, Barry Hume (Haggs Castle) who has  returned a pair of 67s.
"There's life in the old dog yet," said Fotheringham, who deserved more than one Scotland cap in his long competitive career.
"Conditions were ideal in the morning but tougher in the afternoon when the wind started to rise," said the man from Forres originally but now based in Inverness.
"So how did I manage a 66 in the afternoon following a 70? I had five birdies and a self-induced only bogey at the 18th because I did not have a go to get on the green in two because of the wind. and the real danger of coming up short and landing in the is atater.
"I deliberately laid up my second, hoping to salvauge a pitch-and-putt 4 but it didn't happen. Still, I am delighted to be in the mix with guys like Graeme Robertson and Barry Hume."
First-round leader Singapore-born Jeff Wright, 22, from Forres is snapping at the heels of the leading trio after he followed his first-round 65 with a 72. He is one behind them on 137 as is a third Highlander in the leading five players - Kyle Gordsman (Moray) from Hopeman. 
The former US college circuit player has scored 68-69 so far.
Good or bad luck could decide the outcome when it is as close as this.
Rory Smith (Marriott Dalmahoy) had his stroke of fortune in a morning 69 at the par-3 ninth where he holed his tee shot.
A total of 40 players with aggregates of 146 and better qualified for Sunday's 36 holes.

Third time lucky for Harrison at Coventry

 Jack's the lad at last for PGA Assistants' 

Championship

FROM PGA WEBSITE
Jack Harrison made it third time lucky by firing a six-under-par 67 to win the Galvin Green PGA Assistants’ Championship at Coventry Golf Club.
The Wildwood assistant’s wire-to-wire victory saw him banish memories of past disappointments after being narrowly pipped at the post in his last two outings in this event.
The start of the day presented a serious case of déjà vu for the Surrey pro as he quickly put daylight between himself and joint overnight leader James Ruth (China Fleet).
But while in past years he had faded, this time he only went from strength to strength.
And while both David Griffiths and Neil O’Briain (Old Conna) rallied to mount a challenge around the turn, Harrison turned on the style on the back nine to hit four vital birdies and come in with a commanding four-shot victory.
In securing his three-round 16-under-par total Harrison saw his name etched onto an honours roll which includes the likes of Peter Alliss and Tony Jacklin.
As well as claiming a first prize of £5,000, he secured a place to play in the PGA Play-Offs and the PGA Australia Futures Championship. He will also head to Sweden for a four-day visit courtesy of title sponsors Galvin Green.
Harrison’s victory vindicated his decision to turn down an invite to play in the Challenge Tour’s Northern Ireland Open to compete at Coventry.
But he admitted the £32,500 championship had been among his key goals at the start of the year.
“My main goal for the year was to win this and I can’t tell you how good it feels to have done that,” he said.
“Obviously coming into today’s round I couldn’t help but think about last year, it was impossible for me not to.
“In a way I felt relieved that I was tied for the lead rather than having the lead because I didn’t have to be defensive, I could go out there and be aggressive.
“I just went out and treated it exactly the same as I did the past two days. I set five-under as a reasonable target.
“I was a little bit nervous teeing off but my birdie at the first really relaxed me, then I was off!”
From here Harrison is looking to push on with his playing career and challenge for a place at the top table.
“I’ve got a few retakes of exams to do in a couple of weeks but after that I’m going to European Tour school.
“Last year I set myself a target of being on the European Tour in three-years time and if I keep on improving as I am I don’t see why I shouldn’t be able to achieve that.”
Former European Tour player Griffiths, who finished tied second with O’Briain, is enjoying a new chapter in his career with an imminent move to West Herts and a child on the way but he revelled in a return to competitive action.
“It’s been fantastic, I knew I needed to get off to a quick start and I did, and really got it going through ten and 11 holes, hit some good shots coming in but failed to birdie the two par fives which made it tougher. Always a little bit much to ask if the leaders played well but it’s been a good week and it got the juices flowing again to be in competitive action.”
Old Conna’s O’Briain, who finished fourth last year, is aiming to return to make it third time lucky next year.
“I battled all the way, played quite well just didn’t convert as much I needed to. I put myself into one spot of bother on 14 and hit a miraculous shot out of the trees and birdied 15 thinking he we go, maybe I can get up to 14 or 15 under but at the end of the day happy with how I played.
“I was fourth last year, tied second this year so next year logic dictates I should be up there so I’m delighted. A little disappointed to come so close and not come away with it but it’s a learning curve.
“I was actually tied with Jack last year going into the last six holes but made bogey, bogey on 14 and 15. I thought here we go again, so I said to myself ‘man up’ and hit a great shot out of the trees, made my par and stripped one into 15 which has been a bit of a nemesis for me. And the last few holes I gave myself some great chances but nothing dropped. That’s just the way it is but I really enjoyed it.”
