Italy’s Marco Guerisoli opened up a one shot lead in the second round of the European Tour First Qualifying School – Section D at Bogogno.

Guerisoli carded an impressive seven under par 65 to reach 12 under overall  and lead Spain’s Francis Valera (67), with Frenchman Julien Grillion (67) another shot back at 10 under.

At Wychwood Park, Englishman James Heath carded a second round 70 to take a one stroke lead over Tyrone Mordt of South Africa and Australian Scott Arnold, who both had second rounds of 69.

Young amateur Chris Lloyd, who next week will represent Europe in the Junior Ryder Cup, is another shot back in fourth place at four under at the halfway stage.

The Second Stage takes place over four courses in Spain – Costa Ballena Ocean Club, Arcos Gardens, Hacienda del Alamo and El Valle Golf Resort – from November 26 – 29 before the Final Stage at PGA Golf Catalunya Resort in December, where 30 players plus ties will win a European Tour card for 2011.
