The 27-year-old Cal grad shot a 4-under 66 despite a bogey on the 18th hole.
Despite walking off the course after a disappointing bogey on the 18th hole, Collin Morikawa will begin Sunday’s final round of the Scottish Open tied for fourth place, just three strokes off the lead.
Morikawa, ranked No. 6 in the world, made six birdies and just one bogey through 16 holes before coming up three inches short on a birdie putt try on the 17th. He then missed a 5-foot par putt on No. 18 to slip into fourth place. Sweden’s Ludvig Aberg birdied Nos. 16 and 17 and regained the lead he held after Friday, closing with a 5-under 65 for a three-round score of 17 under.
Australian Adam Scott is alone in third place at 14 under after a round of 64 that included seven birdies and just one bogey.
