Stirling University International Collegiate Tournament over 54 holes

Craig Chalmers loses lead on Day 2 at windy 

Duke's Course

By ROB McPHERSON
The second day of the 5th University of Stirling International event at a breezy and cool Duke's Course, St Andrews saw the field tested and stretched on a fast running and fair test.
In the men's event, overnight leader Craig Chalmers (Stirling; Cawder) struggled in the wind on the back nine to post an 80 (+9) to be overtaken by Marco Iten (Stirling; Switzerland) and Craig Ross (SGU Select) - who both shot impressive par rounds at the height of the wind; Kyle McCarron (Maynooth) - who matched his opening day 72; Calum Fyfe (SGU Select) and Mathias Eggenberger (Stirling; Switzerland) - both of whom shot three over par 74s in the afternoon conditions. Round of the day came from James Wilson (Stirling; Balmore) whose 2 under par 69 was unrivalled through the day. In the Men's Team event, defending champions SGU Select lead hosts Stirling I by four shots going into the final round.
In the Ladies event, it also was a tricky day for overnight leader Gemma Batty (Stirling; Powfoot). As with Chalmers, Batty's round of 80 (+7) saw her move backwards through the field to be passed by Nastja Banovec (Abertay Dundee; Slovenia) and Sinead Sexton (Stirling; Lahinch). In the Ladies Team event, Stirling lead local St Andrews University by nineteen shots.
The event concludes with 18 holes today.
