Nick Dougherty lies joint 63rd after the second day of the final stage of qualifying school at San Roque, Spain.
The 19-year-old Shaw Hill-attached pro was one of the leaders after a 69 on the first day, but now lies one over and outside the top 35 after 76 yesterday.
He lies just two shots behind those lying in joint 33rd. 35 players win cards for next year's European Tour.
There are two rounds left.
