Today's final round of the Stoke by Nayland Championship 2009 promises to be an enthralling one - with Tom Haylock and James Ruebotham tied for the lead after a fine day of scoring.
Ruebotham (Welwyn Garden City GC) fired the second best round of the day - an eight-under 64 - to share the lead. He started with three birdies and an eagle in his first five holes and picking up three more shots in a faultless round.
Since dropping a shot on the eighth in his opening round, Haylock (Ground Construction Ltd) has avoided any blemishes - adding a 67 to his opening day 68 to progress to nine under.
Surry (Cumberwell Park) fired out of the blocks, birdieing the first five holes in order to blank out his opening round 73. A sixth birdie at the eighth was followed by a dropped shot at the ninth to see him go out at four under for the tournament.
But the 27 year-old was not finished there and continued his charge up the leaderboard with four birdies on his back nine to shoot a fantastic nine under round-of-the-day 63.
Australian Chris Gaunt joins Surry at eight-under after a fine round of 65. Mark Kerr (Saffron Walden) was in the penultimate trio to finish and made it a chasing pack of three with his second 68 of the tournament.
