Bob MacIntyre snubs his Scottish Open downtime as Oban star drives it up a gear to make Renaissance history

Bob MacIntyre admits it’s all about control as he seeks Scottish Open glory. The Oban ace has moved himself to the brink of achieving a lifetime dream at The Renaissance.

Twelve months ago, it was cruelly snatched away by the magic of Rory McIlroy. But MacIntyre has again put himself in contention to deliver – and is adamant it’s all in his hands.

When the home hero glanced at the leaderboards around the course and saw his name at the top at one stage, it didn’t shrink him.

He doesn’t feel the weight of pressure on his shoulders. Just the weight of the putter in his hands and, when that happens, all is aligned.
