BERND WIESBERGER’S RESURGENCE continued with an outstanding 10-under 61 on day two of the Scottish Open.

The 33-year-old carded 11 birdies — six of which came in a row from holes five to 10 — to maintain his strong form.
Wiesberger missed seven months with a wrist injury but won the Made in Denmark event in May and finished in a tie for second at last week’s Irish Open.
Englishman Slattery hit seven birdies in a blemish-free 64 on day two, while South African Van Rooyen also finished on seven under for the second day in a row.
Players needed a score of five under to make the cut, with Paul Dunne (-4), Padraig Harrington (-3) and Graeme McDowell (level par) among those to miss out.
Rory McIlroy carded another round of 67 which leaves him six strokes off the pace on eight under.
