Romain Langasque replaces Julien Guerrier at the head of the Masters of Andalusia

The French Romain Langasque took the lead of the Masters of Andalusia after the second round played Friday on the course of Valderrama, in Sotogrande.

The head of the master of Andalusia remains tricolor. Occupied until now by Julien Guerrier, the leader’s place went to Romain Lagasque this Friday at the end of the second round. By returning a second consecutive card of 69, two strokes under par, Langasque, 282nd in the world rankings, thought he could finish the day in the lead but he trembled until the end. The Englishman Matt Fitzpatrick, 28th player in the world, cracked on the 18th with a double bogey, after he had just made five birdies.

Leader Thursday night, Guerrier had to be content with a 73 and fell to 6th provisional rank, ahead of Spaniard Rafael Cabrera-Bello, winner of the Spanish Open last Sunday and 2nd Thursday night. However, he fell back to 13th on Friday because of a 74 card. World number 1 Jon Rahm has completely missed out on his tournament so far. After a card of 78 on Thursday, he returned one of 74 on Friday, synonymous with a failed cut in 100th place. A rare poor performance for a player known for his consistency at the highest level.
