Gonzalo Fernández Castaño (+3) didn’t lose faith, didn’t stop fighting, but the Golf Club Laerchenhof, where the BMW International Open concluded its third round, would not back down in the duel with the Spanish golfer, who has shot a 73 three times in a row now, insufficient to leave options open for the win in the last round.
Today, he started off patient, making six pars in a row before finally tipping the scale with a birdie on the 7th hole, but a double bogey almost immediately after on the 9th hole put him back in the same position where has been all week: working hard for a good score that just doesn’t quite turn out.
The golfer from Madrid slightly improved his game from tee to green today, catching more regulation greens than the previous days, but he didn’t manage to find a way to win the battle against the German course. He’ll still have a fourth and last chance in the next definitive round, playing alongside Swedish golfer Bjork, starting at 8:18 am (Spanish time), conscious of the fact that any improvement in the final rankings can be an important factor in the goal of maintaining the rights to play in the European Tour at the end of the year.
