Heggarty/Clark disqualifications
https://www.theopen.com/Heritage/PreviousOpens#!/1981/Royal-St-George's has Jimmy Heggarty and Philip Clark as "DQ" but gives second round scores for them, implying that they made the halfway cut but were disqualified on the third day. This is incorrect. The Times and Glasgow Herald (https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=Xe5AAAAAIBAJ&sjid=kacMAAAAIBAJ&pg=3563%2C3606098) for Saturday 18 July (at the end of the second round) says "Jimmy Heggarty (Rathmore) and Philip Clark (Chatham GC) were both disqualified for failing to sign their card. Both would have qualified for the third round." In other words they didn't make the halfway cut and their second round scores did not count. http://www.europeantour.com/europeantour/season=1981/tournamentid=1981018/leaderboard/index.html#/results shows the correct situation. So only 81 made the cut (top 80 and ties) Nigej (talk) 17:37, 1 October 2017 (UTC)
