Parry and Fitzpatrick one round from Tour
Yorkshire duo John Parry and Matt Fitzpatrick are one good round away from winning a European Tour card for next season.
Harrogate’s Parry shot a level-par 72 yesterday on the stadium course at PGA Catalunya, on day five of six at the qualifying school final stage. Parry is in a tie for 13th on eight under par, two shots ahead of Fitzpatrick who responded to Tuesday’s 76 with a much-improved 71 yesterday.
Sheffield’s former US Amateur champion is six under par and in a tie for 23rd, perilously close to the button as the top 25 and ties all win playing privileges in 2015.
