Lloyd Saltman moving on from Lyon blow

Lloyd Saltman is keen to shake off any disappointment after two bogeys on the final two holes cost him a first European Challenge Tour win in Lyon last week and is taking the positives as he looks to go a step better at this week’s D+D Real Czech Challenge Open.

The Scotsman was leading heading into the final day, and indeed the final two holes, of the ALLIANZ Open de Lyon last week, but the two left compatriot Chris Doak to take the title following a play-off.

Saltman said: “It was difficult in the end. But, at the same time, I don’t really regret anything I did. I played well all week and it was good to be in that position. I felt comfortable in that leading position and, in my own mind, I did everything right. I was in control early on, so that felt great. I’ve taken a lot of confidence from it.”
