Montgomerie flops on day two

Colin Montgomerie came to Erinvale with high hopes but after a good start to the South African Airways Open, where he carded an impressive 68, it all came crashing down on day two.

The Scot, who has set his sights on a resurgent 12 months which he hopes will include a top-10 world ranking for the first time in three years and a Ryder Cup place, scrambled to make the cut by one shot today after an horrific second round of 78.
