Nouailhac ultimate win for ranking 10/12/2008 7:11:27 PM
Once upon a time, in a very nice village in Provence, on a beautiful golf course, one man, Dominique Nouailhac made his dream came through... Greats names are engraved on the trophy of Masters 13 : José Filipe Lima, Jeff Remésy, Mike Lorenzo Vera... This year, a new patronym : Dominique Nouailhac.
Leaders changed all day. Birdy against bogey, par against birdy, Joakimides dropped one shot on 17th and Nouailhac dropped one on 16th then they were all square at -15 with Mike Lorenzo Vera.
The 18th hole, a par 5, great finishing hole with water hazard on the left side of the green is often a scene for surprise. Joakimides holed the putt for birdy and Nouailhac, who had never made a birdy on this hole for all week holed it too.
The two men went to a play off but the story was quickly ended. The parisian, Dominique Nouailhac holed the putt again and lifted the trophy with a huge smile...
This victory lets him enter the Top 5 of the ranking. He gets his card for the Challenge TOur next year. Good job for Grillon, Riu, Guerrier and Menut who confirmed their places for next year on the upper circuit.

Nouailhac, best score to climb on top 10/11/2008 6:16:39 PM
Dominique Nouailhac, 38 years old and Challenge Tour winner, took the lead of the field at Masters 13. The parisian was the best today hole by hole. He scored the greatest card, 65 to lead by 2 Emilien Chamaulte and Mike Lorenzo-Vera.
Jeff Remésy leader after 2 rounds, is still in top 5 and certainly did not quit. The battle for crown will be tough and for sure suspens and surprise are going to be the leit motiv of last round.

Remésy to take the lead 10/10/2008 10:03:56 PM
After two days, cut can not be fixed due to delay of play. Still 45 players to finish their second round.
For those who had the right draw to sign two cards today, the top of the leader is 100 % french. Jean-François Remésy, two time French Open winner and recently, Open International de Paris Stade Français is the leader at the club house. He scored 67 and 69 for a total of minus 8.
One stroke behind, Cédric Menut and Emilien Chamaulte. Mike Lorenzo Vera played 15 holes today and with a good finish tomorrow could still be in the race to victory.

Cedric Menut who had lost his ticket to Challenge Tour last week and Adrien Mörk who had "stolen" this precious fifth place at the order of merit, are both 5th after signoing a card of 68.
