Jorge Campillo will finalize his last options on Sunday to make the ticket to be in the Paris Olympic Games, an asset that will have to be confirmed later with the performances of David Puig and Eugenio L�pez Chacarra at the US Open. The man from Caceres, who needs a tenth place in the Volvo Scandinavian Mixed -among men, since it is a mixed tournament-, could only shoot 71 shots on Saturday, one under par, he fell to the eleventh square and saw how many people joined the platoon from which Sebastian Sodenberg walked away, without opposition. The Swede, with an eight-stroke advantage, has won the tournament with 18 holes remaining.
The third day, that of the movement, was hard. The wind, which reached gusts of 40 km/h, and the cold of Helsingborg (Sweden) They made the maneuvers of competitors difficult. It was difficult for everyone, except for Sodenberg, who was an automaton. By taking many greens and a great putt, he made birdies to complete seven, for a bogey, the first of the tournament on his 50th hole, and a total of 21 under par.
The Nordic takes 8 hits against the Scottish Callum Hill and nine against the Spanish Santi Tarri� and the English Alice Hewson, the first woman on the table. Tarri�, wearing a cap with the visor on the back like the skaters, completed the best lap of the day with 65 strokes. The Galician signed the second consecutive day without errors, this time with seven birdies, only one of them in the par 5s, and has positioned himself in a great third place. After registering five hits when the conditions were not extreme on the first nine holes, he then defended himself perfectly. Another brilliant Saturday was thrown by Rafa Cabrera, 67 hits, who with his sixth place aims to add his second consecutive top 10, something that has not happened since July 2019.
Campillo did not have all the success on the greens of the Touro golfer. It was a dull day, with two birdies and a bogey. He was not able to get any of the par 5s right, too much of an advantage for the others on a Saturday where, despite the bad conditions, the staff scored.
Thus, now he needs a fourth lap of merit to climb any further position – tied tenth place is surely not worth it – with what would happen to David Puig in the world ranking momentarily and hope that the Fireballs golfer who plays LIV Golf and the Asian Tour does not add points – he must make the cut – in the ranking in the US Open, the tournament that closes the Olympic classification. Even L�pez Chacarra with a place in the top two alone would also surpass what Campillo achieves.
