Ayora hits front as List keeps within striking distance
Angel Ayora has shot a bogey-free round of 65 to put himself top of the leaderboard after day two of the Italian Open while Australia's Danny List remains firmly in contention. Englishman Dan Bradbury held the clubhouse lead heading into the second day, but he sits a shot behind in a tie for second despite going two under par for the day. Ghana-born List, meanwhile, who is in his first year on the tour, followed up an opening-round 68 with a 67 on Friday to leave himself four shots off the lead. Ayora was two shots behind the leader coming into the second day in Monte Argentario and after the 20-year-old started with eight straight pars, he holed four successive birdies from the ninth to reach nine under. Bradbury's day got off to the worst possible start as he double bogeyed the first, but he recovered with five birdies, along with another dropped shot, to remain in contention. Sitting in second alongside Bradbury at eight under were the trio of Martin Couvra, Andreas Halvorsen and Marcel Schneider. Frenchman Couvra fired the lowest round of the day, hitting eight birdies and a bogey in his 63 to sit in the chasing pack behind Ayora. Adrien Saddier is alone in sixth after he produced his lowest round of season so far with a six-under 64 to catapult his way into contention for a maiden DP World Tour win. Spanish pair Ivan Cantero and Eugenio Lopez-Chacarra, and Italian Francesco Laporta are all tied in seventh on six under par. Australia's David Micheluzzi carded a 69 to be three under and six shots off the front. Elvis Smylie is two over and Jason Scrivener a further shot adrift.

Angel Ayora one clear of the field at the Italian Open; Conor Purcell misses the cut
Angel Ayora shot a bogey-free round of 65 to put himself atop of the leaderboard after day two of the Italian Open, with Ireland's Conor Purcell missing the cut. Englishman Dan Bradbury held the clubhouse lead heading into the second day, but he sits a shot behind in a tie for second despite going two under par for the day. Ayora was two shots behind the leader coming into the second day in Monte Argentario and after the 20-year-old started with eight straight pars, he holed four successive birdies from the ninth to reach nine under. Bradbury's day got off to the worst possible start as he double bogeyed the first, but he recovered with five birdies, along with another dropped shot, to remain in contention on Saturday. A triple-bogey eight on 12 would ultimately prove costly for Dubliner Purcell at the Argentario Golf Club. His round of 74 left him at four over, two shots beyond the cut mark. Sitting in second alongside Bradbury at eight under were the trio of Martin Couvra, Andreas Halvorsen and Marcel Schneider. Frenchman Couvra fired the lowest round of the day, hitting eight birdies and a bogey in his 63 to sit in the chasing pack behind Ayora. Adrien Saddier is sitting alone in sixth after he produced his lowest round of season so far with a six-under 64 to catapult his way into contention for a maiden DP World Tour win. Spanish pair Ivan Cantero and Eugenio Lopez-Chacarra, and Italian Francesco Laporta are all tied in seventh on six under par

Spaun, the 125th US Open winner, will complete a full set of current major champions teeing up in the Genesis Scottish Open in East Lothian in a fortnight's time. The American, who finished birdie-birdie at Oakmont just under a fortnight ago to pip Bob MacIntyre in the season's third major, has been listed on the official entry list for the $9 million Rolex Series event. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad It means he will be joining Open champion Xander Schauffele, Masters winner Rory McIlroy and PGA champion Scottie Scheffler in a star-studded field at The Renaissance Club. J.J. Spaun shows off the trophy after winning the 125th US Open at Oakmont earlier this month |The top five in the current Official World Golf Ranking will be teeing it up on Scotland's Golf Coast, with Scheffler, McIlroy and Schauffele being joined by Justin Thomas and Collin Morikawa. Sixth-ranked Russell Henley and US Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley, who jumped to seventh spot on the back of his win in the Travelers Championship last weekend, are not on the entry list. But, with Spaun now in the field along with Viktor Hovland and Sepp Straka, it means that eight of the current top ten are heading to Scotland next week for the seventh edition of the event at The Renaissance Club. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Spaun will be making his Genesis Scottish Open debut, having found himself playing in the ISCO Championship, another event co-sanctioned by the DP World Tour and PGA Tour, the same week last year. After a spectacular maiden major win, the 34-year-old will now find himself in one of the marquee groups in East Lothian, where MacIntyre, of course, will be defending the title after becoming the first home winner since 1999 after holing a 23-foot birdie putt on the final green last year. Bob MacIntyre will be up against a star-studded field when he defends his Genesis Scottish Open title at The Renaissance Club | Getty Images At the time the entry list was officially released around midday on Friday, just four Scots were sitting above the projected cut-off mark, the others being the three players to have won on the DP World Tour within the past year or so. Ewen Ferguson, who is set to defend his BMW International Open title in Munich, will definitely be teeing up on home soil, as will Calum Hill and Connor Syme, winners of the Joburg Open and KLM Open respectively this season. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Grant Forrest, who lives in East Lothian and is based at The Renaissance Club, is currently first reserve and should also get in, but it will be a sweat for both Richie Ramsay and Scott Jamieson, who are 16th and 17th on the standby list.
