The New Zealand golfer Josh Geary has bolted into contention for his first win on the US Nationwide Tour after he shot a 10 under par 61 in the third round of the Midwest Classic in Kansas to be in a share of third place.

Geary was in danger of missing the cut after a one under 70 in the opening round.

Since then he's fired a seven under 64 and now the 61.

Geary is just 2 shots behind the leader.
