Raphaël JACQUELIN -5

Raphaël Jacquelin converted seven birdies against just one bogey on his way to a second round 66 (the low round of the day alongside Shane Lowry). His Genworth Statistics are strong across the board, ranking 15th for Driving Accuracy, 19th for Greens in Reg, 4th for Putts per GIR and 3rd for Par 5 Scoring. The 38 year old from France looks to be in control of his game and will be tough to beat over the tricky Parador de El Saler course this weekend.

Rikard KARLBERG -5

Rikard Karlberg got off to a dream start in Round 2 with three birdies and an eagle after just four holes, and if it weren’t for a bogey - bogey finish then he would be leading. The 26 year old golfer from Sweden is driving the ball nice and straight and hitting lots of greens, and he is also scoring well across the different hole types (being the Par 3’s, Par 4’s and Par 5’s).
