39th before the start of the third day, the Frenchman Jérémy Gandon is now 49th, at -8. The only Habs present at the Black Mountain Golf Club returned a card of 70 this Saturday (like that of the first round) with 4 birdies and 2 bogeys. Reached by phone at the end of his journey, the Valentinois gave us his impressions: “We will say that the game was not that bad but that I had a little trouble scoring. It starts from the first holes where there are still some birdie opportunities and I start with 5 pars with a few missed putts, somewhat approximate wedge shots, but it’s still a card under par and then the game is there for make a nice card tomorrow. »
