NORTH BERWICK - Following a 4-under (66), Xander Schauffele holds a two-stroke lead over Rafa Cabrera Bello at the Scottish Open. Schauffele holds his sixth third-round lead/co-lead on the PGA TOUR and is one-for-five in converting to a win to date.
Travelers Championship winner Schauffele is attempting to win in back-to-back starts for the second time in his career.
First- and second-round leader Cameron Tringale trails by four strokes following a 4-over (74).
Four-time DP World Tour winner Rafa Cabrera Bello (2nd) is seeking his first PGA Tour victory in his 138th start. He has four third-place finishes on Tour, most recently at the 2019 Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard.
