Manley daring to dream

Stuart Manley, a schoolboy soccer starlet who had a trial with Manchester United, is about to find out how good a golfer he is.

The 29-year-old from Mountain Ash in Wales has never had a top-10 finish on the European Tour since turning professional in 2003, but at halfway in the Portugal Masters he is 11 under par and one ahead of Spaniard Alvaro Quiros.
