Michael Sims played the last two holes in three-over par to tumble down the leaderboard at the Price Cutter Charity Championship in Missouri yesterday.

The Bermuda number one was chugging along at a solid even-par on the 7,060-yard Highland Springs Country Club in Springfield and in a tie for 51st, before a bogey on the par-four 17th and a double bogey on the par-five last left him tied for 131st (shooting a 73) and spoiled what had been shaping up into another encouraging day.

The tournament leaders are on six-under.
