JORDAN MAKES COMEBACK IN
PUERTO RICO THIS WEEKEND


Fraserburgh exile Jordan Findlay will return to the American college golf circuit this weekend for the first time since he was finished up in Arizona hospital after being forced to retire out on the course at the end of last month.
Finday, 18-year-old former British boys' champion and a second-year golf scholarship student at East Tennessee State University, had returned to action too soon after a bout of pneumonia had sapped his strength.
"Jordan's been back in the gym over the past fortnight and he has been practising. He's still not 100 per cent but he's progressing," said his father Ian.
"He's now in Puerto Rico with the university team for the three-round Puerto Rico Classic which begins at Rio Mar Country Club on Sunday. I hope he can stand the heat because his illness took a lot out of him."
