Grammatica in the race for maiden win

Italy’s Alessandro Grammatica, -7 total, took pole position on his own heading to Open Saint François Guadeloupe last round. Overnight leader Robin Roussel is one shot back neck and neck with fellow countryman Thomas Elissalde.

Grammatica signed for best score of the day, 67.

« I played very well from the tee and on the greens as well. I started a little bit nervous this morning but after a birdie on the 13^th, my 4^th hole, I felt much more confidence and I played very round during the all round. But I know it is still a long way to go. »

The Italian player will play on Saturday to try to seal maiden win on Alps Tour.

France’s Raphaël Marguery is two shots back of the lead thanks to second round 68. The cut felt at +3 including 2 amateurs Jonathan Haykel and Martin Farfal.

Alps Tour leader Ugo Coussaud took a week of after his win in Paris and none of the top 5 will play final round. JB Gonnet, currently 6^th and Robin Roussel 7^th are the ones who could take advantage of it and improve their position.
