Portuguese Ricardo Melo Gouveia departs for the last lap with a focus on Portugal Masters‘ top 5 in golf, which ends today in Vilamoura, where Lucas Herbert can win the European Tour card.
Melo Gouveia is nine strokes away from leader Herbert and four shots from the top five, his goal since he reached fifth place in 2017 and reached the best ever Portuguese standings in the two million euro event , organized at Dom Pedro Victoria Golf Club.
While the Algarve professional departs for the final return at 10:30 on the tee of hole 1, with the ambition to do better than a year ago, Australian Herbert is isolated in command of the competition, with two advantage shots on the English Tom Lewis, champion of the Portugal Masters in 2011.
Like Melo Gouveia, who looks for a good result in Vilamoura, to enter the ‘top 100’ of Race to Dubai and thus secure a place on the circuit in 2019, Lucas Herbert is struggling to win the European First time tour.
In the final round, with tee shot scheduled for 12:00, the Australian will have the company of Tom Lewis, who will try to win the Portuguese event and also access the first division of European golf, and the Swedish Marcus Kinhult .
