BRILLIANT JOAN POCH DOMINATES CATALAN OPEN |
Weather conditions were much better for the second day of the Catalan Open. Joan Poch from Franciac near Girona maintained the advantage he had held right from start to win the tournament with half a dozen strokes to spare on a top-class field. The Catalan star shot a superb final round of 48, highlighted by an ace at the 42 metre 17th hole, to post a 54 hole aggregrate of eleven under par 151. Poch's Catalan colleague Jordi Salva carded a closing 49 to finish second on 157, two shots clear of the very experienced Catalan Paco Salido. The leading 54 hole scores were:
151 Joan Poch (Catalonia)
