Currie and Munro share two-stroke lead at Deer Park
By COLIN FARQUHARSON
Chris Currie (Erskine) and Ross Munro (Duddingston) are sharing the lead two strokes clear of the field at the halfway stage of the 36-hole Tartan Tour Order of Merit event at Deer Park Golf and Country Club, Livingston.
They both shot seven birdies and two bogeys in compiling five-under-par 67s but otherwise their performances were contrasting.
Currie, pictured, was hot stuff on the outward journey with four-under 32 to the turn, birdieing the first, second, fourth, eighth and ninth but was not quite so good with one-under 35 for the inward nine.
Munro took 35 for the first nine holes but came rattling home in four-under-32 with birdies at the 10th, 11th, 12th, 17th and 18th.
Home course man Jamie McLeary in on his own in third place on 69.
