Irish trio misses Dimension Data cut

Gareth Maybin made a quintuple bogey eight on the 17th at The Links at Fancourt to join Gavin Moynihan and Jeff Hopkins in missing the 54-hole cut in the Dimension Data Pro-Am in South Africa.

Back on tour after 20 months out with a wrist injury, the Ballyclare man was two under for the tournament with two holes of his third round to play after an up and down third day

Moments later he was three over and signing for a six over 79 on the par 73 Links layout.

The cut fell at one-under par which also meant there would be no payday for The Island's Moynihan or Royal Dublin's Hopkins.
