Time’s up for Tom McKibbin at Shock Clock Masters

Rising Irish star Tom McKibbin missed the cut yesterday on his European Tour debut at the inaugural Shot Clock Masters.

The 15-year-old Co. Down amateur adding a 78 to his opening 71 to finish six over par. Finland’s Mikko Korhonen will take a slender lead into the third round at Diamond Country Club where none of the field were penalised for slow play for the second day running.

Korhonen has not dropped a shot in 36 holes after adding a 67 to his opening 68 for a halfway total of nine under par, a shot ahead of England’s Steve Webster and South African Justin Walters.
