STEWART SHARING HALFWAY LEAD AT MORGADO

The next Algarve Pro Tour 36-hole, two-day event has started already. This one is at Morgado Golf Club near Portimao.
Duncan Stewart has carried on where he left off in the first event of 2015, at Salgados, by carding an eight-under-par 65 to share the halfway lead with England's James Heath.
Stewart's bogey-free card had birdies at the first, seventh, ninth, 12th, 14th, 16th, 17th and 18th in halves of 33 and 32.
Third placed Scott Drummond, the Shrewsbury-born son of a Scot and a former PGA championship winner, had the most birdies - nine in all - in returning a 66 for third place on his own. Drummond had bogeys at the 11th and 17th.
