Ash Hall, Aron Price and Adam Crawford have delivered desperately needed good performances at the Web.com Tour’s Digital Ally Open this week to give themselves hope of retaining playing rights next year.

All three started the week outside the
top-100 earners on the secondary tour who will automatically keep cards for
next season but all are now a step closer to achieving that goal.

Hall was the best of the Australians this
week with a T13 finish and moved from 123^rd to 104th on the money
list while Price jumped from 104 to 96.

Crawford, who opened with brilliant rounds
of 66-64, will be ruing a third round 71 but finished with a solid 68 to be T23
and move from 126 to 120 on the standings.

The top-75 money earners at season’s end
have a chance to advance to the PGA TOUR through a four tournament qualifying
series while those from 75-100 are assured of a Web.com card for 2016.

Players finishing outside the top-100 have
to return to Q-School to earn a Web.com Tour card, a scenario all will be
desperately trying to avoid.

Hall’s performance was particularly
impressive after a difficult year which has seen him finish in the top-20 just
twice prior to this week.

With just six cuts made in 17 starts rounds
of 64-70-70-63 were an encouraging turn around for a player who is better than
his 2015 results indicate.

At 6-under for his final nine holes Hall
will take plenty of confidence into the last three full field events of the
season and may yet play his way into the top-75 on the money list.

Six of the 14 Australians in this week’s
field made the cut, Steve Allan joining Hall and Price in the top-20 while
Mathew Goggin and Nick Flanagan finished T63 and T65 respectively.

Missing the cut were Bryden Macpherson,
Oliver Goss, James Nitties, Bronson La’Cassie, Rhein Gibson, Brett Drewitt,
Alistair Presnell and Jamie Arnold.
