Irishman Cutler leads Euro field by
one shot with one round to go

It looks a three-horse race with one round to go in the European men's individual amateur championship at Esbjerg Golf Club, Denmark.
Ireland's Paul Cutler had a third-round 68 over the par-71 course for a four-under-par tally of 209.
But that's only one shot ahead of Stephan Gross (Germany), who had a 69 for 210, and first-round leader Luke Goddard (England) who had a 70.
A second Irishman in the top four is Niall Kearney who had a 71 for 212 fourth place.
Scotland's best at the moment is Gavin Dear from Murrayshall with a 70 for 214 and a share of 10th place.
Callum Macaulay (Tulliallan) is sharing 19th place with Paul O'Hara (Colville Park). Callum had a 70 for three-over-par 216 while Paul had a 72.
Steven McEwan (Caprington) is joint 36th on 219 after a par-matching 71.
Wallace Booth is back in a share of 46th place after a 75 for 222.
There was an hour's suspension of play on the third day for rain and a threat of lightning - seems everybody's getting a wet summer.
