Evans leads the way in Spain
The Staplecross-based professional carded a splendid bogey-free six-under-par 66 this morning (Friday) to move to 10-under-par in the Challenge de Espana.
At the end of his round that left him two shots clear of the field, although that could change as most of the other players are yet to complete their second rounds at Izki Golf in the Basque Country.
