Austin Connelly misses the cut at the Portugal Masters

After his stunning 2nd place finish last week at the KLM Open in Holland, young Canadian, Austin Connelly has shot 70 72 +1 including a disappointing double bogey 6 at the last to miss the cut, projected to fall at -2 at the sunny Portugal Masters, on a course known as The Victoria, right on the Mediterranean in the Algarve, where they boast over 300 days of sunshine a year.

Austin earned European Tour status after making the cut at 2017 Qualifying School Final Stage and made a strong start to his Tour career with a T9 finish at the ISPS HANDA World Super 6 Perth earlier this season.

He is currently ranked 199 in the world, but is 71st in the Race to Dubai, with 3 top ten finishes in 12 events, worth around $488,000.

Round 2 is well underway, with the afternoon wave just setting out. Denmark's Lucas Bjerregaard currently leading at -10, with Eddie Pepperell, George Coetzee and Shane Lowry all at -9.
