Rumford on form

AUSTRALIAN Brett Rumford remains on course to fulfil his best man duties after holding onto the lead in the St Omer Open.

He needs to secure a card for next season to avoid a return to the European Tour qualifying school in November as it clashes with his brother’s wedding.

The 25-year-old heads the chase for the £46,000 first prize and one-year exemption at the halfway stage in France.
