Men's world amateur team championship Day 3

SCOTLAND'S BEST YET
- 67 FROM RAMSAY
AND 70 FROM MURRAY

Richie Ramsay found his United States amateur championship form at last to return a third-round 67 (five under par) over the Stellenbosch course as Scotland shot their lowest team total so far.
Ramsay's 67, added to a 70 from George Murray, gave Scotland a Saturday total of 137, compared with 144 on Day 1 and 142 on Day 2.
That gave the Scots a nine-under-par tally of 423 for the first 54 holes of the 72-hole event and pushed them up to a share of sixth place with Sweden.
Netherlands (417) lead by two shots from United States, Canada and Wales who produced a tremendous third-round team total of 12-under-par 132, thanks to a 64 from Edinburgh-born Rhys Davies and a 68 from Walker Cup veteran Nigel Edwards.
Korea (421) are in fifth place.
Ireland (424) are sharing eighth place with Argentina while England (427) are back in a share of 14th place.
