Gonzalo Fernández Castaño (-6) missed the second cut in the Scottish Open, which happens when eighty or more golfers make the first cut, which was the case this time. He shot a 73, two over par for the day, leaving him outside the establish cut line, which is logical when taking into consideration that the average number of shots per golfer at the Renaissance Club was 68.4.
Gonzalo’s round was excessively inconsistent, with four birdies and six bogeys, and it was crucial to keep a steady flow of birdies this week to be competitive, and especially to make it to the top of the pack.
It’s now time to rest for the golfer from Madrid, after four weeks in a row of competition in which he struggled quite a bit, mainly with the tee shots, although a good final score in Ireland helped to keep the goals alive and the morale high. Gonzalo will be back in action around mid-August in the Czech Republic.
