ONLY KERR AND NICOLL MAKE
THE EUROPRO TOUR CUT


Lothians player Mark Kerr and Prestwick's Callum Nicoll were the only Scots to survive the cut after two rounds of the Ivobank PGA EuroPro Tour event at East Sussex National golf course today.
Kerr starts the final round in joint 30th position after rounds of 75 and 70 for 145.
He is one shot ahead of Nicoll who has scored 76 and 70.
Leading the field is Englishman Mark Laskey with 67 and 68 for nine-under-par 135.
Elliot Saltman missed out by one with 77 and 70 for three-over-par 147. His first round included a 9 at the par-4 ninth and a 7 at the par-3 16th. In the event it was a bogey at the 17th in his second round that cost him a place in the last-round action.
Aberdonian Graham Gordon also failed by the narrowest of margins with 73 and 74. He had two double bogeys in his first round.
Glasgow's Barry Hume had a disappointing 72 and 76 for 148, two ahead of Paul Doherty with 73 and 77.
Neil Mitchell (Murcar Links) had 76 and 80 for 156 while Montrose man Graeme Brown totalled 159 with rounds of 79 and 80.
