FEGGANS UNDER PRESSURE IN FLORIDA

PRESSURE ON PAMELA AT FUTURES
TOUR QUALIFYING SCHOOL PRELIM


Ayr-born Pamela Feggans’ professional golf career faces another setback unless she can figure among the leading 90 players and ties at the end of the third round of the United States Futures Tour Qualifying School Stage 1 event at Lakeland, Florida.
Former Scotland amateur international Pamela, who is 24 and went to college in Florida before turning pro, is lying in joint 110th position after scores of 75 and 80 for 155.
Although conditions were very windy for the second round, some players managed to return low numbers, in particular Elizabeth Stuart, 25, from Tampa, whose father emigrated from Glasgow before she was born.
Elizabeth had a first-round 80 and then a career-low 68, in which she had only 25 putts, including just 10 on the first nine holes. She is sharing 37th place on 148.
Londoner Polly Willett is joint 77th after 75 and 77 for 152.
Welsh girl Natasha Morgan, taking time off from studies at Lynn University, Boca Raton, in Florida, is sharing 100th place on 154 with rounds of 73 and 81.
Brenda McLarnon from Belfast is joint 125th with 77 and 79 for 156.
The lead is shared on two-under-par 142 over the Huntington Hills and Schalamar courses by Maru Martinez from Venezuela and 17-year-old Orlando-based amateur from Bangkok, Noon Huachai. Maru has shot a pair of 71s, Noon 69 and 73.
