Laird on the march in Scotland as McIlroy recovers

Scotland’s Martin Laird charged into contention for the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open at Royal Aberdeen on Saturday.

Laird made the cut by a single shot following rounds of 70 and 73, but in a packed field was just seven off the overnight lead shared by fellow Scot Marc Warren, Sweden’s Kristoffer Broberg and Argentina’s Ricardo Gonzalez.
