McGrane gunning for Volvo position

DAMIEN MCGRANE sprung something of a shock when quitting his job at Wexford Golf Club to concentrate full time on the European Tour.

He had always indicated how happy he was in the south-east and especially at the Wexford club where he employed two assistants.

However, McGrane has fully justified the move and now stands 62nd in the European Tour order of merit with the handsome total of €379,181 and within 2,066 points of the 60th spot that would earn him a place in next Thursday week’s lucrative season ending Volvo Masters at Valderrama.
