A shot further back was Ross Sutherland.
In round two the winner was Harvey Cowe with a nett 69, with Steve Spargo a shot behind. However, Jordan Youngson again had two birdies, at the 11th and 15th, for the lowest gross – this time with a 76 – for a nett 71. This gave him a total of 139 which secured him his first trophy in 11 years.
