JAMES BYRNE FAILS BY ONE SHOT TO MAKE IT TO STAGE TWO
Players
from 18 different countries were among the 43 qualifiers who progressed
through the First Qualifying Stage Section A in Austria and Scotland
this week.
The most notable failure was repeating Northern Open champion James Byrne from Banchory. An opening 77 cost him dearly in the final analyis because he missed out by only one stroke from quaifying for Stage 2 in Spain.
All those who failed to progress have lost their entry fees of £1,500 each.
Rodolfo
Cazaubon moved a step closer to becoming only the second Mexican to
earn a place on The European Tour when he led the 23 qualifiers from
Ebreichsdorf GC at the First Qualifying Stage Section A.
Cazaubon shot a closing 67 for a 20
under par aggregate of 268 to finish three clear of Germany’s Stefan
Wiedergrün. The only Mexican golfer to earn fully exempt status on the
European Tour to date was Rafael Alarcon in 1985.
Players from 13 different
nationalities, including from emerging golfing nations such as Russia,
the Czech Republic and China as well as Mexico, were among the 23 who
finished on 281, seven under par, or better.
A
further five nationalities were represented among the 20 qualifiers from
The Roxburghe in Scotland with Swede Philip Eriksson leading the way to
the Second Stage with a final round of 69 for a ten under par total of
278 and three stroke
victory.
The
English pair of Zane Scotland and Jamie Moul finished second while
Brenden Gielow, one of three Americans to make it through the First
Qualifying Stage in Scotland and Austria, shooting the low final round
of 66 to progress to the next
phase.
A
total of 43 players progressed through and will take their place in the
Second Qualifying Stage, to take place in the first week of November
over four courses in Spain leading to the Final Stage at PGA Catalunya
Resort.
The
First Qualifying Stage continues next week as more hopefuls begin their
quest for a place on The European Tour with Section B taking place at
Wychwood Park in England and Golf and Country Club Fleesensee in
Germany, a European Tour
Destination.
Final scores from The Roxburghe Hotel & Golf Course (par 72) – 20 players qualified on 289 (+1) and better
