MARK KERR is hoping his strong showing in The Stoke by Nayland Championship will earn him a spot in the Scottish Challenge later in the month.
While unable to secure his first win in the professional ranks – a closing round of 74 left him in a tie for eighth in the EuroPro Tour event – Kerr reckoned that he could take a lot of positives from his overall performance in Suffolk.
"Unfortunately, I dropped shots at the last two holes where pars would have seen me finish in the top three but it has still been a good week on the whole for me," he said.
"It was great to be in the mix again and my finish should earn me a spot in the Challenge Tour event at Spey Valley as a top-five Scot on the EuroPro Tour Order of Merit."
Kerr finished alongside Elliot Saltman on six-under, the Archerfield Links player having stormed up the leaderboard with a closing 68, the highlight of which was an eagle-3 at the 14th.
