Scottish Open: Dantorp leads as Fitzpatrick looms

The Hindu  

Jens Dantorp birdied the final three holes to lead the Scottish Open by one shot, but Matt Fitzpatrick, Ryan Fox and Scott Hend surged into contention to join a six-man cluster in second that includes Rickie Fowler. Fox, who lost last week's Irish Open on a play-off to Russell Knox, and Hend both went one stroke lower than Fitzpatrick. The Swede saw two bogeys sandwich a birdie in the opening three holes, but three gains to close after a stretch of 12 pars saw him hit the front. Fowler remains an ominous presence, but his day was more mixed as five birdies were negated somewhat by three bogeys including consecutive dropped shots at the sixth and seventh.
