McGee leads way in Cheshire

McGee fired a 71 over the Wychwood Park course in Crewe for a 211 54-hole aggregate and is five strokes clear of nearest rival American Ted Smith.
Dublin’s Colm Moriarty slumped to a disappointing 80 for 219, two behind former amateur champion Alan Dunbar. Dermot McElroy on 220 is still in the hunt but Paul Cutler is four back and needs a minor miracle to stay in contention.
