Murphy back in groove as Kingston heads field

IRELAND’S Gary Murphy lies in a tie for third place at the European Tour’s event in Majorca, three shots off leader James Kingston.

Kingston capitalised on the best of the conditions to shoot a 65 at the Iberdrola Open Cala Millor Mallorca as several players struggled in the latter part of the day.

Kilkenny golfer Murphy has survived only two cuts in 10 starts so far this year.
