McEwan versus overseas trio
for East of Scotland Open title

It looks like Ayrshire's Steven McEwan (picture right by Cal Carson Golf Agency (all rights reserved), versus three overseas golfers down the home straight of the 72-hole East of Scotland Open amateur championship, sponsored by the Bobby Jones Golf Company, at Lundin Golf Club, Fife this afternoon.
Former Australian and Tasmanian amateur champion Rohan Blizard from New South Wales shares the lead with McEwan, the 2005 Scottish boys open stroke-play champion, on two-under-par 211 after three rounds.
They are the only three players to be under par after 54 holes.
They are one shot ahead of South Africa's Justin Turner with a second Australian in the top five, Scott Arnold, sharing third place on 213 with Pitreavie "dark horse," Christopher Bradley.
