By COLIN FARQUHARSON

Paul Lawrie Golf Centre pair Craig Lawrie (72), Sean Lawrie (74) and Moray amateur Jake Scott (75) are all in contention to claim one of the 13 qualifying spots available at the conclusion of the second round in the EuroPro Tour Qualifying School Stage 1 at The Carrick on Loch Lomond today (Thursday).

The Lawrie cousins had rounds of 72 and 74 to be joint fifth and eighth respectively.

Scott is tied ninth after a 75.

Newmachar's John Duff chose Caversham Heath, another of the six qualifying venues, and he shot a two-over 75 to be sharing 24th place. At this course, the leading 38 after 36 holes will go forward to Final Stage at Frilford Heath GC, Oxfordshire from April 5 to 7.
