PGA Europro Tour — Limerick’s Tim Rice and Ballymena’s Dermot McElroy are just four shots behind Welshman James Frazer heading into Friday’s final round of The Jessie May Trust World Snooker Golf Championship at Collingtree Park in Northampton.

Despite a double bogey six at the 17th, Rice carded a three-under par 69 to get to eight-under par and share fourth place with McElroy, who shot a bogey-free, five-under 67.

Royal Dublin's Niall Kearney (70), beaten in a playoff for last week's "FORE" Business Championship at East Sussex National, is a shot behind Rice and McElroy in a tie for eighth on seven-under.

Clandeboye's Jonny Caldwell, fourth in the Race To Amendoeira standings with the top five earning promotion to the Challenge Tour at the end of the season, is tied 20th on five-under par.

The cut fell at three-under par 141 which meant that Brendan McCarroll (142), David Carey (144), Declan Loftus (147), Joe Dillon (148), Stephen Grant (151) and Brian Casey (153) missed out.
