The final stage of the Web.com Tour Qualifying School has turned into a full-on war of birdies. Anything short of in the sixties means losing a lot of ground, perhaps too much...
Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño finished the third consecutive round under par (71 shots) but lost a total of 40 spots in the rankings along the way. Ruthless golf. The Spanish golfer is now in 72nd place with just one round to left to play, which means there’s no other option this Sunday than to attack, attack and attack some more...There’s no other way around it.
He needs to cut back by three shots to position himself in the top 45, while on the other hand, he is nine shots away from the top ten. Korean golfer Jung-jae is the example to follow, who took the lead yesterday after he shot a 60 in third round. It’s possible. In fact, on Saturday there were almost 30 rounds of 65 shots or less. Incredible.
