Jin closing on Tour target

In his professional debut, Jin Cheng is on track to lock up full membership for the upcoming PGA Tour Series China season after a second-round, 1-over 71 moved him to 2-under at the Chinese mainland qualifying tournament at Foison Golf Club in Guangzhou on Wednesday.

Jin headed into the third round five shots ahead of 17-year-old amateur Liang Enqi, whose even-par 70 was the lowest score of the day.

Yin Yongxuan was alone in third at 6-over.
