Lawrie in the hunt

14 July 2012

Peter Lawrie's good week at the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open continued as he shot a four-under-par 68 on Saturday to sit just four shots off the lead going into the final round.

Italian Francesco Molinari continued to lead the way after shooting a 67 but Lawrie will be eyeing the title knowing that low scores are possible if the weather stays fair.

Shane Lowry is five shots off the lead after firing a 69 with Padraig Harrington a further shot back.

Paul McGinley, Damien McGrane, Simon Thornton and Northern Irishman Gareth Maybin all missed the cut on Friday.
