Bain shares the lead in Asia

/noticias.info/ European Tour Affiliate Member Ross Bain of Scotland carded a solid five under par 67 to join Korean teenager Noh Seung-yul at the top of the pack at the inaugural Asian Tour International in Thailand.

The Dubai-based Bain posted eight birdies against a bogey and a double bogey while Noh continued to impress at the US$300,000 event after a steady bogey free 68 in the third round.

The 32 year old Bain had to return on course in the early morning to complete the remaining five holes of his second round. Having birdied four of them, he ended the second round with a course record 62. He then continued his rampaging run in the third round firing a 67.

“I played well and it’s really satisfying as I can see some good scoring,” said the Scotsman. “On the back nine, I had some slack shots and got penalised. But I made the birdies and I’m tied for the lead now. I made the choice to go back to the short putter after the long putter last year and I think it paid off.

“Noh is a super kid and he is so young. He has a great golf game and there is no weakness. He does not have any fear in him and I will be paired with him again tomorrow. He is the man to beat but I will play my game and see how it works out.”
