BOB IS TOP OF THE SCOTS IN DENMARK

THE Saltire flag dominates the top of the Made in Himmerland leaderboard with a trio of Scots in contention heading to the weekend of the premier Danish event.

Oban lefty Robert MacIntyre posted a second round 68 to sit second at eight-under par while Marc Warren and Richie Ramsay, each with four-under 66s, share fourth at six-under.

Spaniard Nacho Elvira, thanks to nine birdies in a sizzling eight-under 62, heads the field by a shot at nine-under in the bright but windy conditions.

MacIntyre looked set to build on his overnight two-shot lead with three outward birdies but he stalled over his inward half with eight pars and a bogey.

He said: "It was solid.Really good opening nine. Putted it nicely but the putter just went a wee bit cold on the back nine.
