 FYFE AND McMULLEN SHARE LEAD AT 

PANMURE WITH ONE ROUND TO GO 

NEWS RELEASE 

Cawder's Calum Fyfe fired a second-round 69 to move into a share of the lead on one-under par 139 with Niall McMullen (Lundin) with one round still to go in the Faldo Series Scottish Qualifier at Panmure Golf Club, near Carnoustie in Angus. 
The duo will play in Thursday's final group alongside 2013 Faldo Series Scotland champion Michael Brodie (Strathmore), who shot a two-under par 68 today to join Charleton's Andrew Davidson in a tie for third on 140.

Overnight co-leader Benjamin Kinsley (St Andrews) and 2012 Faldo Series finalist Callum Cochrane (Marriot Dalmahoy) are a shot further back on 141, one ahead of local favourite Will Porter from Carnoustie. 
In the Girls' Division  the lead of Stirling student Tara Mactaggart (Minto) has been reduced to one by  Kinross's Jennifer Saxton who posted a level-par round of 74 for 155. Tara had a 79 for 154. 
Scottish schoolgirls champion Shannon McWillliam is on 157 after a 75.
 Golfers aged 12 to 21 are competing over three rounds for the Nick Faldo Series 2014 Scotland Championship.  
The field is divided into four age-groups – three for boys and one for girls – and the winners of each division, plus the girls' runner-up, will join Sir Nick Faldo at the season-ending 18^th Faldo Series Grand Final at The Greenbrier in West Virginia, USA.
