Wade Ormsby was the lone Australian to survive the cut at the European Tour’s Trophee Hassan tournament, the South Australian continuing a successful comeback from injury last year as he works to retain his playing privileges.

Ormsby is playing the 2017 season on a medical exemption after a neck ailment derailed his 2016 campaign.

In his third appearance at the Royal Golf Dar Es Salam course Ormsby once again showed a liking for the venue where he has previously posted two top-10 finishes.

While not quite as successful this time around, he finished strong in a difficult scoring week with a final round of 3-under 70 to jump more than 20 places up the standings to T34.

Entering the weekend at even par Ormsby was in decent position to climb into contention but a third round 76, with just one birdie on his scorecard, saw him tumble down the leaderboard.

Despite the cut line coming at 2-over both Richard Green and Nathan Holman were well outside the qualifying line.

Green posted rounds of 77-74 to miss by three while Holman signed for 78-75 to be four adrift.
