Cool Damien McGrane opens up at Girona in Qualifying School Final Stage

Damien McGrane might have little interest in tournament golf at this stage of the season — and his career — but he has a funny way of showing it after a fine fourth round at the Qualifying School Final Stage at PGA Catalunya Resort in Girona.

The Kells man was one of four Irish who made the cut for the final two rounds (today and tomorrow) which will determine who secures full playing rights for next year’s European Tour.

McGrane shot a one-under round of 71 on the Stadium course to see him climb to eight under overall, six off the lead set by Daniel Gavins, Jean Hugo and Chris Hanson (-14).
