Lloyd Kennedy VS Chris Hanson
The Gecko Pro Tour, the only full schedule professional winter tour in Europe, suffered its first play delay of the season. Due to high winds at Alcaidesa Links Resort, Day two was delayed for a few hours while the players waited for the Met offices prediction of calmer gusts to materialize. The Gecko on the Wall took the opportunity to get to know the players a bit better and went out to ask the boys a few questions. Sitting together were the overnight leader Chris Hanson and his fellow countryman and European Challenge Tour Player Lloyd Kennedy, who was sitting in second place. I thought I would interview them head to head
So boys, let’s find out more about you two.

Describe The Gecko Pro Tour
(Windy) Great Tour/very friendly and very well run… ¿And What about you Chris?
-I actually agree with Lloyd. Really well run, very friendly but really competitive.
Lloyd Kennedy then went out and shot a level par round in the howling conditions to take tied 4th place while his “all time” idol Chris Hanson went out and shot a -2 (70) securing himself vicory at Alcaidesa.
The Gecko Pro Tour welcomes you English boys to our shores and wish you both the best luck for your upcoming Challenge Tour seasons.
