Ro Sham Bo Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Law has dropped back to t23 after a poor round today but the other three remain reasonably well placed. There are a couple of potential threats for them to be aware of but if Law and McIntyre put in decent final rounds they should be okay, I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a 17k cushion to 16th spot, and although the winner gets 72k the prizes drop off quickly, 5th place only gets 18.5k and 10th 12.5k. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite finished yet but the Tour twitter feed is reporting that Law is safe. He looks like he will finish 14th with only the final spot still all to play for over the final few holes. Apparently his driver cracked during the second round which might explain his drop off in scores over the weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McIntyre, Law, Forrest and Johnston now confirmed as sealing their tour cards for next year. Hopefully a few others can join them through Q school. Final stage of Q school starts today in Tarragona. It`s a marathon over 6 rounds. A number of Scots involved:- Connor Syme, Marc Warren, Jack McDonald, Calum Hill, Duncan Stewart, James Ross, Craig Ross, Daniel Young, Ewen Ferguson, Scott Henry and Chris Robb. The leading 25 players (plus those tied for 25th place) will earn Category 16 Membership of The European Tour for the following season. Good luck to the Scots involved.

Distant Doonhamer Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Connor Syme and Craig Ross within the top 25 after first rounds on 5 under. Long way to go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Fair play to Lee Westwood, didn't think he had another win in him but he hit a final round 64 to win the Nedbank Open in SA. I know some people think that there comes a point where these guys don't care about winning, but here is his interview. https://twitter.com/EuropeanTour/status/1061604933433098240?s=19 And the lucky b*****d was getting dry humped by his caddy on the final green. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep delighted for Westwood. Round 2 of Q school now complete. Marc Warren the only Scot currently in the coveted top 25 thogh 4 rounds still to go. To be in top 25 thus far you need to be 8 under or better after 2 rounds. The leader is 16 under after 2 rounds !! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 All the Scots are struggling at Q school, Warren and Syme are 7 under but that's 3 shots off the current mark for 25th place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be disappointing if we don't get at least 1 through the tour school. At least they are well placed to make the cut but they really can't afford another bad round out of the last three. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. still 3 rounds to go of course. Top 70 and ties make the cut after round 4 then 2 further rounds beyond that. Hopefully one or two Scots can still make it.

Going to have to find some low scores in their final 2 rounds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Warren birdied his final 3 holes today to move up from being right on the cut line to "only" 3 shots away from top 25. Craig Ross is 4 shots off the top 25, Duncan Stewart 5 behind and Connor Syme right on the cut line at 6 under with those in top 25 at 12 under and better. As you say some low scores needed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Slightly disappointed with the showing so far. Warren has the ability to make up the gap but I don't hold out much hope for the others. I fancied Calum Hill to qualify but he didn't even make the cut mark. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
