Loypur turns it on in Scotland

Scottish Stroke Play 2nd round update:

An interesting day in Scotland! Our tee times ranged from 7:30am to 3:10pm today and the weather ranged from blowing 30-40kph and heavy rain to beautiful sunshine and calm.

Scores:

DJ Loypur -1 (+2)
Anthony Murdaca +2 (+1)
Lucas Herbert +2 (+4)
Ben Eccles +3 (+2)

Kiren Day +4 (+5) MC
Brett Coletta +4 (+8) MC
Andrew Schonewille +6 (+10) MC
Daniel Gale +4 (+12) MC

Round of the day was DJ Loypur. Off at 7:30am, DJ had the worst of the conditions with high winds and consistent rain throughout most of his round. He played "ok" golf over the 1st 9 holes turning in +2 then turned it on through his back nine shooting -3 for a one under par 71 and +2 total. DJ is T25 (alongside Ben Eccles) heading into the final two rounds.

Lucas Herbert made eagle on the Par 5 2nd hole hitting a 3 iron from 209m to 30feet and holing the putt. His round included a triple bogey and a double bogey but clutch birdies on 16 and 17 saw him make the cut on the number.

Tomorrow is the final day of the tournament meaning 36 holes in one day. The forecast is for heavy rain and strong winds which means our players have an opportunity chase down the leaders, possibly without having to "go low".
