Day 2 in European Tour Q School Stage 2 events
SALTMAN SLIPS DOWN TO JOINT 26TH
AFTER FOLLOWING UP 65 WITH 78
Walker Cup man Lloyd Saltman from Craigielaw fell off his pedestal on the second day of the European Tour Qualifying School Stage 2 event at PGA Catalunya, one of four Spanish venues being used for the 72-hole tests.
The top 20 (approximately) after four rounds at each centre will go forward to the Final Q School at San Roque on the Costa del Sol from November 9 to 14.
Saltman’s standard of performance deteriorated by 13 shots in 24 hours. On Wednesday, golf was the easiest game in the world as he shot a 65 to lead a field of would-be pros. Today he toiled for an 78 and his 143 aggregate has dropped him to a share of 26th place.
At the same venue, former Scottish boys’ match-play champion Paul Doherty from South Wales is fiddling away in a share of fourth place at PGA Catalunya. Paul has had scores of 67 and 70 for five-under-par 137 and he is sharing fourth place.
Past Scottish amateur champion Barry Hume looks out of it here with a pair of 74s for a share of 58th place on 148.
Euan Little from Portpatrick is sharing fourth place at Costa Ballena after scores of 66 and 69 for 135. He’s two shots off the hot pace being set by Sweden’s Per Barth.
Former European Tour Rookie of the Year Scott Henderson is sharing eighth place here after scores of 69 and 69 for 137 – one shot ahead of Montrose man Graeme Brown with a pair of 69s.
Not so well placed are Paul McKechnie and Peter Whiteford in a share of 39th place on 140 while David Patrick (142), amateur Mark Kerr (144), Chris Doak (145) and mystery Scot Alasdair Hay (147) look out of it at the halfway stage.
Carnoustie’s Eric Ramsay is a borderline case meantime at Emporda whereis he sharing 23rd place on 139 after scores of 69 and 70.
Paul Doherty’s big brother Jack fell from grace here with a 78 – 12 shots worse than his opening round – and he is sharing 64th place on 144.
At Sherry Golf Jerez, Graham Fox and Jamie McLeary are in contention with 36 holes to go as they share 21st place on 143. Amateur George Murray is sharing 30th place on 144.
At this venue, it does not look good for amateur Scott Jamieson (148), Murray Urquhart from Inverness on 149 and Greig Hutcheon on 152. The Peterculter man had a bad day at the office with a 79.
