If on Thursday the rain complicated the day, this Friday the sun rose, but the wind from the southwest, which drifted to the south, with gusts at times up to 20 km/h, made the route quite complicated, especially in the first nine holes.

And if Jamieson is the dominator, the donostiarra Adrian OtaeguiSi, 29 years old and number 42 in the World Ranking, became the ‘warrior’ of the day, to place himself, with a total of 132 shots (-8), only third.

Only one putt error on the 5th hole, a par 4 of 335 meters that caused him a double bogey (he needed six shots) and a bogey on the 13th, prevented him from a better card. Birdies on holes 1, 2, 8, 9, 11, 16 and 18 with very good putts gave him a 66 stroke (-4) card, the same as Thursday.

JamiesonThe 38-year-old and number 34 in the world rankings, made a round of 66 strokes (-4) on Thursday and this Friday he started the 10th hole with a birdie on 11 and a bogey error on 12 (par 4 of 430 meters). It has since been a recital with birdies at 14, 15 and 16 and a great ‘eagle’ when he fired three shots on the 18th hole (par 5 of 493 meters).

He started his second round calmly, with a birdie on hole 1, added another on hole 7, to close out the best round of the day (63 shots), leading Finnish Tario Pulkkonen by two.

The battle erupted from the first hour with Finn Pulkkonenone of the leaders of the first day with 64 strokes (-6), as the star and showed a card of 67 strokes (3 under par) with birdies on holes 4, 9, 11, 13 and 18 and bogeys at 8 and 15. This brought him to a total of 131 (-9) and he became the interim leader.

The American Johannes Verman, another of those who finished the first day in the lead with 64 shots (-6), started with bogeys on holes 11 and 12 and didn’t threaten a round of 69 (-1) and 133 total (-7). He got his circuit card here in 2019 and he knows full well the dangers of the course.

the young dane Rasmus Hojgarard was put into the fight with a return of 67 strokes (-3), with 3 birdies and a bogey, added to 66 (-4) the previous day, gave him a total of 133 strokes (-7), but one pang Danish, Thorbjorn Olesenmember of the European team of the 2018 Ryder Cup, world champion along with Denmark and Olympian in 2016, performed the feat of the day.

He started in 46th place with a 69 shot (-1) card and, starting on the 10th hole, added five birdies (11, 18, 1, 4 and 6) for round 65 (-5) and a total of 134 (-6), which puts him in sixth, after climbing 40 positions.

Barcelonan Pablo Larrazabal, who started with a round of 67 strokes (-3), had problems with ‘roughs’, the tall grass on the edges of fairways, and didn’t want to risk it. He showed a round of 68 shots (-2) for a total of 135 (-5) and finished in twelfth position.

The third -ranked Spaniard is the young 23 -year -old player from Malaga Angel Hidalgo, who showed a round of 67 shots (-3) for a total of 136 (-4) that put him in twenty-one spot.

They follow him from Madrid Sebastian Garcia Rodriguezwith a total of 137 hits (-3) in twenty-eighth place, tied with Catalan adri arnaus and the cacereño Jorge Campillo. Highlight the great punch, hole in one, from Lleida Charles Pigem on the 17th hole (par 3 of 183 meters), but it didn’t help him pass the cut.

The cut was established with 139 shots (-1) and 80 player passes, nine Spaniards, who will play in the last two rounds in pursuit of victory giving 308,500 euros to the winner.
