Scott Henry jumps into card spot as Edoardo Molinari leads
Henry, who is bidding to regain his place on the main circuit after a three-year absence, jumped 22 spots to joint 10th after a four-under-par 68 at PGA Catalunya. Helped by six birdies, he is sitting on seven-under, two shots inside the projected cut-off in the battle to finish among the top 25 and ties.
Also in with a chance of joining the Clydebank man in achieving that target are David Law and Ross Kellett after they both stayed in card contention with one final circuit to go. Having signed for a 71 to sit joint 31st on four-under, Aberdonian Law is just one shot off a European Tour membership badge, while Kellett is two shots further back but still in the mix after the Motherwell man carded the same score.
