BRITISH STUDENTS CHAMPIONSHIP - Jack McDonald leads mens event.

JACK McDONALD LEADS BRITISH STUDENTS' MEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP

Stirling's Jack McDonald, a former Scottish Under-16 champion, leads the field with one round to go in the British universities men's golf championship at West Lancs Golf Club, near Liverpool.
McDonald, pictured, a member of Kilmarnock Barassie GC, has come to the front with ever-improving rounds of 74, 73 and 70 for a 54-hole tally of one-over-par 217.
He leads by one shot from Stirling team-mate Kit Holmes (75-72-71) and Plymouth's Conor Wilson (74-72-72), both on 218.
Graeme Robertson (Stirling), one of the pre-tournament favourites, is back in eighth place - but only five shots off McDonald's pace. The Glenbervie man, winner of the Craigmillar Park Open in Edinburgh on Sunday, could still do it if he gets the bit between his teeth over the final 18 holes.
It's a one-filly race for the women's title with Charlotte Austwick (York) leading by 10 shots after rounds of 74-77-71 for 222.
Her nearest rivals on 232 are Scottish girls champion Eilidh Briggs (Stirling) (78-77-78) and Welsh international Gemma Bradbury (82-76-74).
Kelsey MacDonald (Stirling), one of the pre-tournament favourites, is presumed to have retired from the competition. Her name does not figure in the draw for the final round and no second or third-round scores are listed for her on the tournament website.
