ADAM DUNTON LEADS BY THREE AT HALFWAY IN SE DISTRICT OPEN

Last year's winner, Adam Dunton (McDonald Ellon) leads the South East District Open field by three strokes with Sunday's two rounds to come.
Dunton had Saturday scores of 67 and 69 over the par-69 West Linton Golf Club layout for a two-under-par tally of 136.
His nearest rivals at Jack McDonald (Kilmarnock Barassie) (71-68) and Craig Ross (Kirkhill) (70-69).
McDonald needs to finish ahead of James White (Lundin) to win the SGU Order of Merit title. This is the last counting event. James, beaten finalist in the recent Scottish amateur championship, is on 143 (70-73)

There was an Aberdeenshire 1-2-3 at the end of the first round of the 72-hole SGU Order of Merit event.
Kevin Duncan (Cruden Bay) led on three-under 66, a shot ahead of Adam Dunton (pictured right) with John Duff (Newmachar) lying third on 68.
On 69 were Craig Howie (Peebles), Kyle McClung (Wigtownshire Co) and Graham Robertson (Silverknowes).
Scott Borrowman (Dollar) was one of five players on 70.
The first round cut fell at 152 and the second-round CSS was 73 (reduction only).
