Broadhurst broadside marks return to form

FORMER Ryder Cup star Paul Broadhurst is back challenging for a European tour title seven months after fearing for his career.

While Londoner Chris Gane was running up an amazing 17 shots at one hole in the Diageo Championship at Gleneagles the second highest in tour history Broadhurst defied more windy conditions to record a second round 68.

It lifted the 37-year-old father-of-three to three under par and only one behind halfway leader Soren Kjeldsen as just eight of the 156 players broke the par of 144.
