THREE SCOTS MAKE FINAL DAY IN MOGADOR OPEN

BUT McLEAN'S 69 FAILS TO BEAT CUT

Chris Robb and Philip McLean shot 68 and 69  respectively - two of the best second-round scores in the German PGA developmental tour's Mogador Open at Essaouira, Morocco today (Thursday).

Last year's Scottish amateur champion Robb, from Banchory, shares 18th place on 143 with another North-east player, Ross Cameron (73-70) from Ellon, seven shots behind German leader Anton Kirsten (65-71 for eight-under 136).

A third Scot to beat the cut was the Duke of Roxburghe's son, Ted Innes-Ker, who had a 73 for 145 and is sharing 26th place.

McLean's great effort to qualify for the final day - a six-birdie round with an inward half of 32 - failed by two shots. The Peterhead player's  first-round 80 was too big a burden and his total of 149 was two strokes over the limit mark.

Portlethen youngster Sam Kiloh missed the cut on 161 with scores of 83 and 78.
